The authority of the Administrative Agent to make U.S. Overadvances is limited to an aggregate amount not to exceed $25,000,000 at any time, no U.S. Overadvance may remain outstanding for more than forty-five (45) days, no U.S. Overadvance shall cause any U.S. Lender’s U.S. Revolving Exposure or Revolving Exposure to exceed its U.S. Commitment or Revolving Commitment (as applicable), no U.S. Overadvance shall cause the Aggregate Revolving Exposure to exceed (i) the Aggregate Revolving Commitments minus (ii) the sum of (A) the Priority Payables Reserve, (B) the Rent Reserve and (C) the Wage Earner Protection Act Reserve and no U.S. Overadvance shall cause the sum of (x) the aggregate amount of all outstanding Overadvances plus (y) the aggregate amount of all outstanding Protective Advances to exceed $60,000,000; provided that, the Supermajority Revolving Lenders may at any time revoke the Administrative Agent’s authorization to make U.S. Overadvances. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof.

(c) Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, at the request of the Borrower Representative, the Canadian Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion (but with absolutely no obligation), make Canadian Revolving Loans to the Canadian Borrowers, on behalf of the Canadian Lenders, in amounts that exceed Canadian Availability (any such excess Canadian Revolving Loans are herein referred to collectively as “Canadian Overadvances”); provided that, no Canadian Overadvance shall result in a Default due to Canadian Borrowers’ failure to comply with Section 2.01 for so long as such Canadian Overadvance remains outstanding in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, but solely with respect to the amount of such Canadian Overadvance. In addition, Canadian Overadvances may be made even if the condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02(c) has not been satisfied, it being understood that the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 4.02(a), (b) and (d) shall continue to apply (subject to the proviso set forth in the immediately preceding sentence). All Canadian Overadvances shall constitute ABR Borrowings or Canadian Prime Rate Borrowings. The authority of the Canadian Administrative Agent to make Canadian Overadvances is limited to an aggregate amount not to exceed $25,000,000 at any time, no Canadian Overadvance may remain outstanding for more than forty-five (45) days, no Canadian Overadvance shall cause any Canadian Lender’s Canadian Revolving Exposure or Revolving Exposure to exceed its Canadian Commitment or Revolving Commitment (as applicable), no Canadian Overadvance shall cause the Aggregate Revolving Exposure to exceed (i) the Aggregate Revolving Commitments minus (ii) the sum of (A) the Priority Payables Reserve, (B) the Rent Reserve and (C) the Wage Earners Protection Act Reserve, and no Canadian Overadvance shall cause the sum of (x) the aggregate amount of all outstanding Overadvances plus (y) the aggregate amount of all outstanding Protective Advances to exceed $60,000,000; provided that, the Supermajority Revolving Lenders may at any time revoke the Canadian Administrative Agent’s authorization to make Canadian Overadvances. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Canadian Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof.

(d) Upon the making of a U.S. Swingline Loan or a U.S. Overadvance (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default and regardless of whether a Settlement has been requested with respect to such U.S. Swingline Loan or U.S. Overadvance), each U.S. Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the U.S. Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such U.S. Swingline Loan or U.S. Overadvance equal in amount to such U.S. Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such U.S. Swingline Loan or U.S. Overadvance. The U.S. Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent may, at any time, require the U.S. Lenders to fund their participations in U.S. Swingline Loans or U.S. Overadvances. From and after the date, if any, on which any U.S. Lender is required to fund its participation in any U.S. Swingline Loan or U.S. Overadvance purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such U.S. Lender, such U.S. Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such U.S. Swingline Loan or U.S. Overadvance.

(e) Upon the making of a Canadian Swingline Loan or a Canadian Overadvance (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default and regardless of whether a Settlement has been requested with respect to such Canadian Swingline Loan or Canadian Overadvance), each Canadian Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Canadian Swingline Lender or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Canadian Swingline Loan or Canadian Overadvance equal in amount to such Canadian Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Canadian Swingline Loan or Canadian Overadvance. The Canadian Swingline Lender or the Canadian Administrative Agent may, at any time, require the Canadian Lenders to fund their participations in Canadian Swingline Loans or Canadian Overadvances. From and after the date, if any, on which any Canadian Lender is required to fund its participation in any Canadian Swingline Loan or Canadian Overadvance purchased hereunder, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Canadian Lender, such Canadian Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Canadian Administrative Agent in respect of such Canadian Swingline Loan or Canadian Overadvance, as the case may be.

(f) Each of the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent, on behalf of the U.S. Swingline Lender or the Canadian Swingline Lender, as applicable, shall request settlement (a “Settlement”) with the U.S. Lenders or Canadian Lenders, as applicable, on at least a weekly basis or on any more frequent date that the Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, elects, by notifying the applicable Revolving Lenders of such requested Settlement by facsimile, telephone, or electronic mail no later than 11:00 a.m., Chicago time, on the date of such requested Settlement (the “Settlement Date”). With respect to Settlements involving U.S. Loans, each U.S. Lender (other than the U.S. Swingline Lender, in the case of the U.S. Swingline Loans) shall transfer in dollars the amount of such U.S. Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the outstanding principal amount of the applicable Loan with respect to which Settlement is requested to the Administrative Agent, to an account of the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may designate, not later than noon, Chicago time, on such Settlement Date. With respect to Settlements involving Canadian Loans, each Canadian Lender (other than the Canadian Swingline Lender, in the case of the Canadian Swingline Loans) shall transfer, in the currency in which the applicable Loan was denominated, the amount of such Canadian Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the outstanding principal amount of the applicable Loan with respect to which Settlement is requested to the Canadian Administrative Agent, to an account of the Canadian Administrative Agent as the Canadian Administrative Agent may designate, not later than noon, Chicago time, on such Settlement Date. Settlements may occur during the existence of a Default and whether or not the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have then been satisfied. Such amounts transferred to: (i) the Administrative Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the U.S. Swingline Lender’s U.S. Swingline Loans and, together with U.S. Swingline Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such U.S. Swingline Loan, shall constitute U.S. Revolving Loans of such U.S. Lenders, respectively; and (ii) the Canadian Administrative Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the Canadian Swingline Lender’s Canadian Swingline Loans and, together with Canadian Swingline Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Canadian Swingline Loan, shall constitute Canadian Revolving Loans of such Canadian Lenders, respectively. If any such amount is not transferred to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, by any Revolving Lender on such Settlement Date, the applicable Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon as specified in Section 2.07.

SECTION 2.06 Letters of Credit. (1) General Terms; Issuing Bank Commitments; Requests for Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower Representative may request the issuance of, and each Issuing Bank agrees, subject to its LC Individual Sublimit and in reliance upon the agreements of the Borrowers and the Lenders set forth in this Section 2.06 and elsewhere in the Agreement, to issue, Letters of Credit (denominated in dollars or in an LC Alternative Currency in the case of U.S. Letters of Credit and denominated in dollars or Canadian Dollars in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit) for the account of a Borrower or for the account of a Restricted Subsidiary, in a form reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent in the case of U.S. Letters of Credit, and the Canadian Administrative Agent in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period; provided that (i) with respect to any Letter of Credit issued for the account of (x) a Domestic Subsidiary that is not a Borrower or (ii) a Foreign Subsidiary, one or more of the U.S. Borrowers shall be the applicant or co-applicant with respect to such Letter of Credit and (y) a Canadian Subsidiary that is not a Borrower, one or more of the Canadian Borrowers shall be the applicant or co-applicant with respect to such Letter of Credit, (ii) each U.S. Borrower and each other U.S. Loan Party irrevocably agrees that is shall be jointly and severally liable and fully responsible for any and all LC Disbursements and other obligations with respect to any Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Borrower or Restricted Subsidiary hereunder as if such Letter of Credit had been issued for the sole account of such U.S. Borrower or other U.S. Loan Party, (iii) each Canadian Borrower and each other Canadian Loan Party irrevocably agrees that is shall be jointly and severally liable and fully responsible for any and all LC Disbursements and other obligations with respect to any Canadian Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Canadian Borrower or Canadian Subsidiary hereunder as if such Letter of Credit had been issued for the sole account of such Canadian Borrower or other Canadian Loan Party, (iv) each U.S. Lender severally agrees to participate in all U.S. Letters of Credit issued hereunder to the extent of its Applicable Percentage, and (v) each Canadian Lender severally agrees to participate in all Canadian Letters of Credit issued hereunder to the extent of its Applicable Percentage. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrowers to, or entered into by the Borrowers with, an Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Issuing Bank shall have any obligation hereunder to issue, and shall not issue, any Letter of Credit (i) the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person (A) to fund any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of any Sanctions or (B) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement, or (ii) if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Change in Law relating to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Second Restatement Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Second Restatement Date and which such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it and is not otherwise compensated for hereunder.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower Representative shall deliver by hand or facsimile (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Bank) to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent in the case of U.S. Letters of Credit and the Canadian Administrative Agent in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) (in each case, prior to noon, Chicago time, at least three Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the Loan Party or Restricted Subsidiary for whose account such Letter of Credit is to be issued, the currency in which such Letter of Credit will be denominated (which may be in: (x) dollars or an LC Alternative Currency in the case of U.S. Letters of Credit and (y) dollars or Canadian Dollars in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit), the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the applicable Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrowers shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the aggregate LC Exposure shall not exceed the LC Aggregate Maximum Amount, (ii) U.S. Availability shall not be less than zero, (iii) Canadian Availability shall not be less than zero, (iv) Aggregate Availability shall not be less than zero, (v) the aggregate LC Exposure with respect to all Letters of Credit issued in an LC Alternative Currency shall not exceed the LC Alternative Currency Sublimit, (vi) the LC Exposure of the applicable Issuing Bank shall not exceed such Issuing Bank’s LC Individual Sublimit, and (vii) each Lender’s U.S. Revolving Exposure, Canadian Revolving Exposure and Revolving Exposure shall not exceed such Lender’s U.S. Commitment, Canadian Commitment and Revolving Commitment, respectively.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date that is two years (or, at the discretion of the applicable Issuing Bank, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, an agreed to longer period of time) after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, including, without limitation, any “evergreen” or automatic renewal provisions, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date (unless such Letter of Credit has been cash collateralized in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.06(k)) or otherwise in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank; provided, that in the case of any Letter of Credit providing for annual automatic renewal, such Letter of Credit may, at the discretion of the applicable Issuing Bank, be automatically extended for a period of up to one year after the Maturity Date.

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of any Issuing Bank or the Revolving Lenders, the applicable Issuing Bank hereby grants to each U.S. Lender, with respect to a U.S. Letter of Credit, and each Canadian Lender, with respect to a Canadian Letter of Credit, and each U.S. Lender and Canadian Lender, as applicable, hereby acquires from the applicable Issuing Bank, a participation in each such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, (i) with respect to each U.S. Letter of Credit, each U.S. Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay in dollars to the Administrative Agent, and (ii) with respect to any Canadian Letters of Credit, each Canadian Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally promises to pay, in the same currency in which such Canadian Letter of Credit is issued, the Canadian Administrative Agent, in each case for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement, made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to such Borrowers for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, U.S. Commitments or Canadian Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to (i) the Administrative Agent (in the case of any U.S. Letter of Credit) in dollars, and (ii) the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of any Canadian Letter of Credit) in the same currency as the applicable LC Disbursement, an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than noon, Chicago time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower Representative shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., Chicago time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower Representative prior to such time on such date, then not later than 1:00 p.m., Chicago time, on (x) the Business Day that the Borrower Representative receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., Chicago time, on the date of receipt, or (y) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower Representative receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the date of receipt; provided that the Borrowers may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.05 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or U.S. Swingline Loan (in the case of U.S. Letters of Credit), or a Canadian Prime Rate Revolving Borrowing or Canadian Swingline Loan (in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit), in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed (in the event that such LC Disbursement with respect to a U.S. Letter of Credit was made in an LC Alternative Currency, such Borrowing Request shall be for an amount in dollars equal to the Dollar Amount of such LC Disbursement), the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing, Canadian Prime Rate Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrowers fail to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall notify each U.S. Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement with respect to U.S. Letters of Credit and each Canadian Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement with respect of Canadian Letters of Credit, the payment then due from the applicable Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice with respect to any Letter of Credit, each U.S. Lender (in the case of any U.S. Letter of Credit) and each Canadian Lender (in the case of any Canadian Letter of Credit) shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the applicable Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the applicable Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from such Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, of any payment from the Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent and Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the applicable Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse any Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Revolving Loans, or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan (but shall be a Secured Obligation) and shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f) Exchange Indemnification and Increased Costs. The U.S. Borrowers shall, upon demand from any Issuing Bank or any U.S. Lender, pay to such Issuing Bank or such U.S. Lender, the amount of (i) any loss or cost or increased cost incurred by such Issuing Bank or such U.S. Lender, (ii) any reduction in any amount payable to or in the effective return on the capital to such Issuing Bank or such U.S. Lender, (iii) any currency exchange loss, in each case with respect to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), that such Issuing Bank or such U.S. Lender sustains as a result of the U.S. Borrowers’ repayment in dollars of any U.S. Letter of Credit that was denominated in an LC Alternative Currency or (iv) any interest or any other return, including principal, foregone by such Issuing Bank as a result of the introduction of, changeover to or operation of the Euro in any member state participating in the Euro. A certificate of the applicable Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for determining such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Issuing Bank shall be conclusively presumed to be correct save for manifest error.

(g) Obligations Absolute. The joint and several obligations of U.S. Borrowers to reimburse LC Disbursements and the obligation of the Canadian Borrowers to reimburse LC Disbursements on account of Canadian Letters of Credit, in each case, as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be (subject to Section 12.01) absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein or herein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders nor any Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the applicable Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by any Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(h) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent (in the case of U.S. Letters of Credit), the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit) and the applicable Borrower by telephone (confirmed by facsimile or electronic mail) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank and the applicable Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(i) Interim Interest. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrowers reimburse such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum (i) then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans in the case of LC Disbursements made in dollars; (ii) then applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Revolving Loans in the case of LC Disbursements made in Canadian Dollars; and (iii) equal to the Overnight LIBO Rate plus the Overnight LIBO Spread as set forth in the definition of “Applicable Rate” in the case of LC Disbursements made in an LC Alternative Currency; provided that, if the applicable Borrowers fail to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(f) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment.

(j) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank to be replaced and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(k) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower Representative receives notice from the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, (i) the U.S. Borrowers shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lender Parties (the “LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to 103% of the U.S. LC Exposure as of such date plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon; and (ii) the Canadian Borrowers shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Canadian Lender Parties (the “Canadian LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to 103% of the Canadian LC Exposure as of such date plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in clauses (i) or (j) of Article VII. Such deposits shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations in the case of deposits in the LC Collateral Account, and the Canadian Secured Obligations in the case of deposits in the Canadian LC Collateral Account. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such accounts; and (x) the U.S. Borrowers hereby grant the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lender Parties) a security interest in the LC Collateral Account and (y) the Canadian Borrowers hereby grant the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Canadian Lender Parties) a security interest in the Canadian LC Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrowers’ risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Subject to Section 12.01, moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the U.S. Borrowers or the Canadian Borrowers, as applicable, for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Required Lenders), be applied, in the case of moneys in the LC Collateral Account, to satisfy other Secured Obligations or, in the case of moneys in the Canadian LC Collateral Account, to satisfy other Canadian Secured Obligations. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers within three Business Days after all such Events of Default have been cured or waived.

(l) Treatment of Existing Letters of Credit. On the Second Restatement Date, (i) each Existing U.S. Letter of Credit, to the extent outstanding, shall automatically and without further action by the parties thereto be deemed converted into a U.S. Letter of Credit under this Agreement (as reflected on Schedule 2.06) and each Existing Canadian Letter of Credit, to the extent outstanding, shall automatically and without further action by the parties thereto be deemed converted into a Canadian Letter of Credit under this Agreement (as reflected on Schedule 2.06), in each case, pursuant to this Section 2.06 and subject to the provisions hereof as if each such Existing U.S. Letter of Credit and each Existing Canadian Letter of Credit had been issued on the Second Restatement Date, (ii) each Existing U.S. Letter of Credit shall be included in the calculation of U.S. LC Exposure and each Existing Canadian Letter of Credit shall be included in the calculation of Canadian LC Exposure, and (iii) all liabilities of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties with respect to such Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute Obligations.

(m) Issuing Bank Reports to the Administrative Agent. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) periodic activity (for such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancelations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) reasonably prior to the time that such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the stated amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date and amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which any Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount of such LC Disbursement, and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.

SECTION 2.07 Funding of Borrowings. (1) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m., Chicago time, to the account of the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that, Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.05. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, will make such Loans available to the Borrower Representative by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the Funding Account(s); provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of (i) an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, to the applicable Issuing Bank, (ii) a U.S. Protective Advance or a U.S. Overadvance shall be retained by the Administrative Agent, and (iii) a Canadian Protective Advance or a Canadian Overadvance shall be retained by the Canadian Administrative Agent. U.S. Loans and participations in U.S. Swingline Loans and U.S. Letters of Credit will be funded by each U.S. Lender pro rata in accordance with its Applicable Percentage of the U.S. Commitments. Canadian Loans and participations in Canadian Swingline Loans and Canadian Letters of Credit will be funded by each Canadian Lender pro rata in accordance with its Applicable Percentage of the Canadian Commitments.

(a) Unless the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of either the Federal Funds Effective Rate (in the case of dollar denominated amounts) or the Canadian Administrative Agent’s cost of funds (in the case of Canadian Dollar denominated amounts) and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, or (ii) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans (in the case of dollar denominated amounts), or Canadian Prime Rate Loans (in the case of Canadian Dollar denominated amounts). If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.08 Interest Elections. (1) Each Revolving Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing or a CDOR Rate Revolving Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower Representative may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing or a CDOR Rate Revolving Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower Representative may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing, provided that a Borrowing in one currency may only be converted to another Type of Borrowing denominated in the same currency as the Borrowing to be so converted. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, Overadvances or Protective Advances, which may not be converted or continued.

(a) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower Representative shall notify the (i) Administrative Agent, with respect to each U.S. Revolving Loan, and (ii) the Canadian Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) with respect to any Canadian Revolving Loan, of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrowers were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, facsimile or electronic mail delivery to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), as applicable, of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, and signed by the Borrower Representative.

(b) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the name of the applicable Borrower and the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) the currency in which such Borrowing is to be funded;

(iv) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing, a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing, a CDOR Rate Borrowing, or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(v) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing or a CDOR Rate Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing or a CDOR Rate Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s (or, in the case of a CDOR Rate Borrowing, 30 days’) duration.

(a) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request by (i) the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall advise each U.S. Lender of the details thereof and of such U.S. Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing, and (ii) the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall advise each Canadian Lender of the details thereof and of such Canadian Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(b) If the Borrower Representative fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing of either U.S. Revolving Loans or Canadian Revolving Loans denominated in dollars. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower Representative, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing of U.S. Revolving Loans or Canadian Revolving Loans denominated in dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

(c) If the Borrower Representative fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a CDOR Rate Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower Representative, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a CDOR Rate Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each CDOR Rate Borrowing shall be converted to a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing of the same class at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.09 Termination and Reduction of Commitments; Increase in Revolving Commitments. (1) Unless previously terminated, all Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date. For clarification, all U.S. Commitments and Canadian Commitments, as sub-facilities of the Revolving Commitments, shall terminate upon the termination of the Revolving Commitments.

(a) Subject to Section 12.01, the Borrowers may at any time terminate the Revolving Commitments upon (i) the payment in full in cash of all outstanding U.S. Loans, in the case of the U.S. Commitment, and Canadian Loans, in the case of the Canadian Commitment, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and on any U.S. Letters of Credit, in the case of the U.S. Commitment, and Canadian Letters of Credit, in the case of the Canadian Commitment, as applicable, (ii) the cancellation and return of all outstanding U.S. Letters of Credit, in the case of the U.S. Commitment, and Canadian Letters of Credit, in the case of the Canadian Commitment (or alternatively, (A) with respect to each such U.S. Letter of Credit, the deposit in the LC Collateral Account of cash equal to 103% of the U.S. LC Exposure or with respect to each such Canadian Letter of Credit, the deposit in the Canadian LC Collateral Account of cash equal to 103% Canadian LC Exposure, as applicable, as of such date in accordance with Section 2.06(k), or (B) with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, and each applicable Issuing Bank, a back-up standby letter of credit equal to 103% of the U.S. LC Exposure or Canadian LC Exposure, as applicable, as of such date), (iii) the payment in full in cash of the accrued and unpaid fees, and (iv) the payment in full in cash of all reimbursable expenses and other U.S. Obligations or Canadian Obligations, as applicable, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. For clarification, all U.S. Commitments and Canadian Commitments, as sub-facilities of the Revolving Commitments, shall terminate upon the termination of the Revolving Commitments.

(b) Subject to Section 12.01, the Borrowers may from time to time reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrowers shall not reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, Aggregate Availability would be less than zero. Each reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages. In connection with any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, the aggregate U.S. Commitments shall be automatically reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount of the reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, and, to the extent that the reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Commitments would cause the Canadian Sublimit to exceed the aggregate amount of the Canadian Commitments of the Canadian Lenders, the Canadian Sublimit shall be automatically reduced so that after giving effect to the reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, the Canadian Sublimit does not exceed the aggregate amount of the Canadian Commitments of the Canadian Lenders.

(c) The Borrower Representative shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments under paragraphs (b) or (c) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall advise the U.S. Lenders or the Canadian Lenders, as applicable, of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower Representative pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Borrower Representative may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of another transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower Representative (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be permanent.

(d) The Borrowers shall have the right to increase the Aggregate Revolving Commitments (an “Aggregate Commitment Increase”) by obtaining additional Revolving Commitments, either from one or more of the Lenders or another lending institution, provided that (i) any such request for an Aggregate Commitment Increase shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000, (ii) the Borrower Representative, on behalf of the Borrowers, may make a maximum of four (4) such requests, (iii) the Administrative Agent has approved the identity of any such new Lender, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, (iv) any such new Lender assumes all of the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder, (v) the aggregate amount of all such Aggregate Commitment Increases shall not exceed $200,000,000, (vi) the conditions described in Section 2.09(f) shall be satisfied and (vii) no Lender shall have any obligation to increase its Revolving Commitment in connection with any such Aggregate Commitment Increase requested by the Borrowers hereunder. Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower Representative, allocate the additional Revolving Commitments between U.S. Commitments and Canadian Commitments.

(e) Any amendment hereto for such an Aggregate Commitment Increase shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and shall only require the written signatures of the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers and the Lender(s) being added or increasing their Revolving Commitment(s). As condition precedents to such an increase, the Borrower Representative shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party signed by an authorized officer of such Loan Party (A) certifying and attaching the authorizations adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (B) in the case of the Borrowers, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (1) the representations and warranties contained in Article III and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations or warranties that are already qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof or except to the extent such representation or warranty relates to an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date), and (2) no Default exists.

(f) In addition, the Borrowers shall have the right to request in connection with an Aggregate Commitment Increase that the Canadian Sublimit be increased (a “Canadian Sublimit Increase”) through the increase by one or more Canadian Lenders of their Canadian Commitments or the addition of one or more new lending institutions as additional Canadian Lenders hereunder. Any request for a Canadian Sublimit Increase shall be subject to the following conditions (which conditions shall be in addition to the conditions set forth in Sections 2.09(e) and (f) above): (i) such request shall be submitted by the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent in writing not less than 15 days prior to the proposed dates of such Canadian Sublimit Increase, (ii) the Borrower Representative, on behalf of the Canadian Borrowers, shall be entitled to submit such a request on only one occasion during the term of this Agreement, (iii) the aggregate amount of the Canadian Sublimit Increase shall not exceed $25,000,000, (iv) the Borrowers shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent an amendment hereto in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent effecting such increase, which amendment shall require only the signature of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lender(s) increasing their Canadian Commitments, (v) the Borrowers shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party signed by an authorized officer of such Loan Party (A) certifying and attaching the authorizations adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (B) in the case of the Borrowers, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (1) the representations and warranties contained in Article III and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations or warranties that are already qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof or except to the extent such representation or warranty relates to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date), and (2) no Default exists, and (vi) no Lender shall have any obligation to increase its Canadian Commitment in connection with any such Canadian Sublimit Increase requested by the Borrowers hereunder.

(g) Within a reasonable time after the effective date of any Aggregate Commitment Increase or Canadian Sublimit Increase, the Administrative Agent shall, and is hereby authorized and directed to, revise the Revolving Commitment Schedule to reflect such increase and shall distribute such revised Revolving Commitment Schedule to each of the Lenders and the Borrowers, whereupon such revised Revolving Commitment Schedule shall replace the old Revolving Commitment Schedule and become part of this Agreement. On the Business Day following any such Aggregate Commitment Increase, all outstanding ABR Loans and Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be reallocated among the Lenders (including any newly added Lenders) in accordance with the Lenders’ respective revised Applicable Percentages. Eurodollar Loans and CDOR Rate Loans shall not be reallocated among the Lenders prior to the expiration of the applicable Interest Period in effect at the time of any such increase.

SECTION 2.10 Repayment and Amortization of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (1) (i) The U.S. Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay (A) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each U.S. Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each U.S. Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date, (B) to the Administrative Agent the then unpaid principal amount of each U.S. Protective Advance on the earlier of the Maturity Date and demand by the Administrative Agent and (C) to the Administrative Agent the then unpaid principal amount of each U.S. Overadvance on the earliest of the Maturity Date, the forty-fifth (45^th) day after such U.S. Overadvance is made, and demand by the Administrative Agent; and (ii) the Canadian Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay (A) to the Canadian Administrative Agent for the account of each Canadian Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Canadian Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date, (B) to the Canadian Administrative Agent the then unpaid amount of each Canadian Protective Advance on the earlier of the Maturity Date and demand by the Canadian Administrative Agent and (C) to the Canadian Administrative Agent the then unpaid principal amount of each Canadian Overadvance on the earliest of the Maturity Date, the forty-fifth (45^th) day after such Canadian Overadvance is made, and demand by the Canadian Administrative Agent.

(a) On each Business Day during any Cash Dominion Period, (i) the Administrative Agent shall apply all funds credited to each U.S. Collection Account on such Business Day or the immediately preceding Business Day (at the discretion of the Administrative Agent, whether or not immediately available) first to prepay any U.S. Protective Advances and U.S. Overadvances that may be outstanding, pro rata, and second to prepay the U.S. Revolving Loans (including U.S. Swingline Loans) and to cash collateralize outstanding U.S. LC Exposure; and (ii) the Canadian Administrative Agent shall apply all funds credited to each Canadian Collection Account on such Business Day or the immediately preceding Business Day (at the discretion of the Canadian Administrative Agent, whether or not immediately available) first to prepay any Canadian Protective Advances and Canadian Overadvances that may be outstanding, pro rata, and second to prepay the Canadian Revolving Loans (including Canadian Swingline Loans) and to cash collateralize outstanding Canadian LC Exposure.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c) (i) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (A) the amount of each U.S. Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (B) the amount of any principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the U.S. Borrowers to each U.S. Lender hereunder and (C) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the U.S. Lenders and each U.S. Lender’s share thereof; and (ii) the Canadian Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (A) the amount of each Canadian Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (B) the amount of any principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Canadian Borrowers to each Canadian Lender hereunder and (C) the amount of any sum received by the Canadian Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Canadian Lenders and each Canadian Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein subject to manifest error; provided that in the event of a conflict between an account maintained pursuant to clause (c) and an account maintained pursuant to clause (d) of this Section, the account maintained under clause (d) shall control; provided further that the failure of any Lender, the Administrative Agent, or the Canadian Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the applicable Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent (it being agreed that the form attached hereto as Exhibit H is approved by the Administrative Agent). Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the applicable Lender and its registered assigns.

SECTION 2.11 Prepayment of Loans. (1) The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time, without premium or penalty other than any break funding payments required in accordance with Section 2.16, to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (f) of this Section and subject to Section 12.01.

(a) Except for Overadvances permitted under Section 2.05, in the event and on such occasion (including after any Revaluation Date) that (i) Aggregate Availability shall be less than zero, subject to Section 12.01, (ii) U.S. Availability shall be less than zero, or (iii) Canadian Availability shall be less than zero, the Borrowers shall immediately prepay (or in the case of the LC Exposure, cash collateralize) the Revolving Loans, LC Exposure and/or Swingline Loans in an aggregate amount sufficient to cause Aggregate Availability, U.S. Availability and Canadian Availability to no longer be less than zero.

(b) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of any Loan Party in respect of any Prepayment Event during any Cash Dominion Period, the Borrowers shall, subject to Section 12.01, immediately after such Net Proceeds are received by any Loan Party, prepay the Obligations as set forth in Section 2.11(d) below in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Proceeds (without any reduction in the Revolving Commitments), provided that any Net Proceeds with respect to any Prepayment Event which are clearly identifiable as proceeds of Term Loan Priority Collateral shall be remitted to the Term Loan Agent in accordance with and to the extent required by the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement.

(c) All such amounts pursuant to Section 2.11(c) shall be applied, first to prepay any Protective Advances and Overadvances that may be outstanding, pro rata, and second to prepay the Revolving Loans (including Swing Line Loans) without a corresponding reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and to cash collateralize outstanding LC Exposure (in an amount up to 103% of the outstanding LC Exposure). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such application of proceeds from the Collateral securing solely the Canadian Obligations shall be made solely in respect of the Canadian Obligations.

(d) The Borrower Representative shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by facsimile or electronic mail) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing or a CDOR Rate Revolving Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Chicago time, three (or, in the case of a CDOR Rate Revolving Borrowing, two) Business Days before the date of prepayment, or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Revolving Borrowing or a Canadian Prime Rate Revolving Borrowing, not later than noon, Chicago time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Revolving Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13.

SECTION 2.12 Fees. (1) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the Available Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Second Restatement Date to but excluding the date on which such Lenders’ Revolving Commitment terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each calendar month and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Second Restatement Date. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed.

(d) The (i) U.S. Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each U.S. Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in U.S. Letters of Credit and (ii) Canadian Borrowers agree to pay to the Canadian Administrative Agent for the account of each Canadian Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Canadian Letters of Credit, which, in each case, shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s applicable LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Second Restatement Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Revolving Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure. In addition, each Borrower agrees to pay to the applicable Issuing Bank with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower by such Issuing Bank a fronting fee in an amount separately agreed upon between the Borrowers and the applicable Issuing Bank, as well as the applicable Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees accrued through and including the last day of each calendar month shall be payable on the first day of each calendar month following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Second Restatement Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Fronting fees in respect of any Letter of Credit shall be payable on the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and on the date of any renewal thereof. Any other fees payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed.

(e) The U.S. Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the U.S. Borrowers and the Administrative Agent. The Canadian Borrowers agree to pay to the Canadian Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Canadian Borrowers and the Canadian Administrative Agent.

(f) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, (or to the applicable Issuing Bank in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.13 Interest. (1) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for such Type of Loan.

(a) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate for such Type of Loan.

(b) The Loans comprising each Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing shall bear interest at the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Rate for such Type of Loan.

(c) The Loans comprising each CDOR Rate Borrowing shall bear interest at the CDOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate for such Type of Loan.

(d) Each Protective Advance and each Overadvance shall bear interest at the Canadian Prime Rate, if denominated in Canadian Dollars, or at the Alternate Base Rate, if denominated in dollars, plus the Applicable Rate for corresponding Revolving Loans plus 2% per annum.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Borrower Representative (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 9.02 requiring the consent of “each Lender affected thereby” for reductions in interest rates), declare that (i) all Loans shall bear interest at 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loans as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount outstanding hereunder, such amount shall accrue at 2% above the rate applicable to such fee or other obligation, if any, as provided hereunder.

(f) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan or a Canadian Prime Rate Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan or CDOR Rate Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(g) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate, the Canadian Prime Rate or the CDOR Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed. The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Canadian Prime Rate, CDOR Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(h) For purposes of disclosure pursuant to the Interest Act (Canada), the annual rates of interest or fees to which the rates of interest or fees provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and stated herein or therein, as applicable, to be computed on the basis of 360 days or any other period of time less than a calendar year) are equivalent are the rates so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the applicable calendar year and divided by 360 or such other period of time, respectively.

SECTION 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest. (a) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent demonstrable or manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining (including, without limitation, by means of an Interpolated Rate) the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower Representative and the Lenders by telephone, facsimile or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower Representative and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (B) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.

(b) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a CDOR Rate Borrowing:

(i) the Canadian Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent demonstrable or manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the CDOR Rate for such Interest Period; or

(ii) the Canadian Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the CDOR Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Canadian Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower Representative and the Lenders by telephone, facsimile or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Canadian Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower Representative and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a CDOR Rate Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (B) if any Borrowing Request requests a CDOR Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing.

SECTION 2.15 Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(iii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or Issuing Bank;

(iv) impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans or CDOR Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or

(v) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender (or such other Recipient) of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan or CDOR Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank (or such other Recipient) of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank (or such other Recipient) hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then subject to Section 12.01 the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank (or such other Recipient), as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank (or such other Recipient), as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of, or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by a Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then subject to Section 12.01 from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower Representative and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower Representative of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.16 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan or CDOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan or CDOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan or CDOR Rate Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.09(c) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan or CDOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower Representative pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event, the U.S. Borrowers shall compensate each U.S. Lender and the Canadian Borrowers shall compensate each Canadian Lender, as applicable, for the loss, cost and expense incurred by such Lender that is attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan or CDOR Rate Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the CDOR Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period to such Eurodollar Loan from other banks in the eurodollar market, or for Canadian Dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period to such CDOR Rate Loan from other banks in the Canadian bankers’ acceptance market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower Representative and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.17 Withholding of Taxes; Gross-Up.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Evidence of Payment. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.17, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrowers. Subject to Section 12.01, the Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Loan Party by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent and at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent or prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming that its extension of credit will generate U.S. effectively connected income, executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-1 to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

(4) to the extent a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner of payments made under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 or Exhibit C-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-U.S. Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Non-U.S. Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.17 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph (g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(i) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

SECTION 2.18 Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Set-offs. (1) The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by them hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., Chicago time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set‑off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 10 South Dearborn Street, 22nd Floor, Chicago, Illinois, except (i) payments of principal, interest, fees or reimbursements of LC Disbursements relating to any Canadian Loan or Canadian Letter of Credit shall be made to the Canadian Administrative Agent at its offices at 200 Bay Street, Royal Bank Plaza, Floor 18, Toronto M57 2J2 Canada, (ii) payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein shall be made to such Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, and (iii) payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient, in like funds, promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in the currency in which the applicable Obligations are denominated (subject to the proviso set forth in the first sentence of Section 1.05), and, if not otherwise specified, in dollars.

(a) Subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement and to Section 12.01, any proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent so elects, or the Required Lenders so direct, shall be applied ratably (based in respect of each of the following separate categories, computed independently of the other categories, on each Lender Party’s interest in the aggregate specific type of outstanding Secured Obligations described within (and only within) each specific category of Secured Obligations listed respectively below) first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, and each Issuing Bank from the Borrowers (other than in connection with Banking Services or Swap Agreement Obligations), second, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Borrowers (other than in connection with Banking Services or Swap Agreement Obligations), third, to pay interest due in respect of Swingline Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances, fourth, to pay the principal of Swingline Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances, fifth, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans (other than Swingline Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances), sixth, to prepay principal on the Loans (other than Swingline Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances) and unreimbursed LC Disbursements, seventh, to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to one hundred three percent (103%) of the U.S. LC Exposure, and to pay an amount to the Canadian Administrative Agent equal to one hundred three percent (103%) of the Canadian LC Exposure, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations, eighth, to pay any amounts owing to the Lenders and their Affiliates with respect to Specified Foreign Credit Extensions up to and including the amount most recently provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.22, ninth, to pay any amounts owing to the Lenders and their Affiliates with respect to Banking Services up to and including the amount most recently provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.22, Swap Agreement Obligations up to and including the amount most recently provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.22 and Foreign Credit Extensions (other than Specified Foreign Credit Extensions), and tenth, to pay any other Secured Obligation due to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Lender by the Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Borrower Representative, or unless an Event of Default is in existence, neither the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, nor any Lender shall apply any payment which it receives to any Eurodollar Loan or CDOR Rate Loan of a Class, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Eurodollar Loan or such CDOR Rate Loan or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, with respect to CDOR Rate Loans, that there are no outstanding Canadian Prime Rate Loans of the same Class, and with respect to Eurodollar Loans, that there are no outstanding ABR Loans of the same Class and, in any such event, the Borrowers shall pay the break funding payment required in accordance with Section 2.16. The Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing but subject to Section 9.20, any such application of proceeds from Collateral securing solely the Canadian Obligations shall be made solely in respect of Canadian Obligations.

(b) At the election of the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, all payments of principal, interest, LC Disbursements, fees, premiums, reimbursable expenses (including, without limitation, all reimbursement for fees and expenses pursuant to Section 9.03), and other sums payable under the Loan Documents, may be paid from the proceeds of Borrowings made hereunder whether made following a request by the Borrower Representative pursuant to Section 2.03 or a deemed request as provided in this Section or may be deducted from any deposit account of any Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes (i) the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, to make a Borrowing for the purpose of paying each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder or any other amount due under the Loan Documents and agrees that all such amounts charged shall constitute Loans (including Swingline Loans and Overadvances, but such a Borrowing may only constitute a Protective Advance if it is to reimburse costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 9.03) and that all such Borrowings shall be deemed to have been requested pursuant to Sections 2.03, 2.04 or 2.05, as applicable and (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, to charge any deposit account of any Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, for each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder or any other amount due under the Loan Documents.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set‑off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower Representative prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, for the account of the Lenders or an Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder, then the Administrative Agent and, if applicable, the Canadian Administrative Agent, may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations hereunder until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and apply any such amounts to, any future funding obligations of such Lender hereunder; application of amounts pursuant to (i) and (ii) above shall be made in such order as may be determined by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, in its discretion.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless requested otherwise by the Canadian Borrowers (i) no Borrowings shall be made to a Canadian Borrower for the purpose of paying any U.S. Obligations; and (ii) deposit accounts of the Canadian Borrowers may only be charged to pay Canadian Obligations.

SECTION 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 or 2.15, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The U.S. Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 or 2.15, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(c) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 or 2.15, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, the Lender shall first use reasonable efforts to mitigate its costs or the effects of the applicable law or Change in Law, and any request for additional compensation shall specify in sufficient detail the reasons therefor and the mitigating actions taken.

SECTION 2.20 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a);

(b) such Defaulting Lender shall not have the right to vote on any issue on which voting is required (other than to the extent expressly provided in Section 9.02(b)) and the Revolving Commitment and Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders or the Supermajority Revolving Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.02), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;

(i) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only (x) to the extent that the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower Representative shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented that such conditions are satisfied at such time) and (y) to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitments;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.06(k) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(iii) if the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 2.20(c), the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv) if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 2.20(c), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12(a) and Section 2.12(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; or

(v) if all or any portion of any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.20(c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the applicable Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all facility fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such LC Exposure) and letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Bank until such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated;

(a) no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.20(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.20(c)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein); and

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to the Parent of any Lender shall occur following the Second Restatement Date and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit and the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan, unless the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrowers or such Lender, satisfactory to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, to defease any risk in respect of such Lender hereunder;

(b) in the event and on the date that each of the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Borrowers, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lenders agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the other Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.

(c) For purposes of any covenant which permits or restricts actions by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party or calculates compliance with financial covenants or any other provision of this Agreement, in each case, based in whole or in part upon the calculation of Aggregate Availability, U.S. Availability, Canadian Availability or Combined Availability, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, Aggregate Availability, U.S. Availability, Canadian Availability and Combined Availability shall be calculated (i) as if such Defaulting Lender had funded its Applicable Percentage of all outstanding Borrowings and (ii) including such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment in the same manner as if such Lender were not a Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 2.21 Returned Payments. If after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Obligations, the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, then the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or such Lender. The provisions of this Section 2.21 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds. The provisions of this Section 2.21 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.22 Banking Services and Swap Agreements. Each Lender or Affiliate thereof providing Banking Services for, or having Swap Agreements with, any Loan Party, or providing Foreign Credit Extensions to any Foreign Subsidiary, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, promptly after entering into such Banking Services, Swap Agreements or Foreign Credit Extensions, written notice setting forth the aggregate amount of all Banking Services Obligations and Swap Agreement Obligations of such Loan Party to such Lender or Affiliate or the aggregate amount of all Foreign Credit Extensions by such Lender to such Foreign Subsidiary, as applicable (in each case, whether matured or unmatured, absolute or contingent). In furtherance of that requirement, each such Lender or Affiliate thereof shall furnish the Administrative Agent, from time to time after a significant change therein or upon a request therefor, a summary of the amounts due or to become due in respect of such Banking Services Obligations, Swap Agreement Obligations and Foreign Credit Extensions. The most recent information provided to the Administrative Agent shall be used in determining which tier of the waterfall, contained in Section 2.18(b), such Banking Services Obligations, Swap Agreement Obligations and/or Foreign Credit Extensions will be placed.

SECTION 2.23 Excess Resulting From Exchange Rate Change. (a) With respect to the Canadian Commitments, at any time following one or more fluctuations in the exchange rate of the Canadian Dollar against the dollar, (i) the aggregate Canadian Revolving Exposure of the Canadian Lenders exceeds the lesser of: (A) the Canadian Borrowing Base plus U.S. Availability, or (B) (x) the Canadian Sublimit minus (y) the sum of (1) the Priority Payables Reserve, (2) the Rent Reserve and (3) the Wage Earner Protection Act Reserve, or (ii) the aggregate Canadian Obligations exceeds any other limit based on dollars set forth herein for such Canadian Obligations, the Canadian Borrowers shall (A) if such excess is an aggregate amount that is less than $1,000,000 and such excess continues to exist in an aggregate amount less than $1,000,000 for at least five Business Days, within two Business Days of notice from the Canadian Administrative Agent, (B) if such excess is in an aggregate amount that is greater than or equal to $1,000,000 but less than $5,000,000, within two Business Days of notice from the Canadian Administrative Agent, or (C) if such excess is in an aggregate amount greater than or equal to $5,000,000 or if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, immediately, (x) make the necessary payments or repayments to reduce such Canadian Obligations to an amount necessary to eliminate such excess or (y) maintain or cause to be maintained with the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Canadian Lender Parties) deposits as continuing collateral security for the Canadian Obligations in an amount equal to or greater than the amount of such excess, such deposits to be maintained in such form and upon such terms as are acceptable to the Canadian Administrative Agent. Without in any way limiting the foregoing provisions, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall, weekly or more frequently in the sole discretion of the Canadian Administrative Agent, make the necessary exchange rate calculations to determine whether any such excess exists on such date and advise the Borrowers if such excess exists.

(a) With respect to the U.S. Commitments, at any time following one or more fluctuations in the exchange rate of any LC Alternative Currency against the dollar, (i) the sum of the aggregate U.S. Revolving Exposure of the U.S. Lenders plus the Canadian U.S. Borrowing Base Utilization exceeds the lesser of: (A) the U.S. Borrowing Base, or (B) (x) the total U.S. Commitments minus (y) the sum of (1) the Priority Payables Reserve, (2) the Rent Reserve and (3) the Wage Earner Protection Act Reserve, or (ii) the aggregate U.S. Obligations exceeds any other limit based on dollars set forth herein for such U.S. Obligations, the U.S. Borrowers shall (A) if such excess is an aggregate amount that is less than $1,000,000 and such excess continues to exist in an aggregate amount less than $1,000,000 for at least five Business Days, within two Business Days of notice from the Administrative Agent, (B) if such excess is in an aggregate amount that is greater than or equal to $1,000,000 but less than $5,000,000, within two Business Days of notice from the Administrative Agent, or (C) if such excess is in an aggregate amount greater than or equal to $5,000,000 or if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, immediately, (x) make the necessary payments or repayments to reduce such U.S. Obligations to an amount necessary to eliminate such excess or (y) maintain or cause to be maintained with the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lender Parties) deposits as continuing collateral security for the Obligations in an amount equal to or greater than the amount of such excess, such deposits to be maintained in such form and upon such terms as are acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Without in any way limiting the foregoing provisions, the Administrative Agent shall, weekly or more frequently in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, make the necessary exchange rate calculations to determine whether any such excess exists on such date and advise the Borrowers if such excess exists.

(b) If one or more of the U.S. Borrowers provide cash collateral to secure obligations related to U.S. Letters of Credit that are denominated in an LC Alternative Currency (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.06(k), 2.10(b) or 2.18(b)) and, as a result of fluctuations in the applicable exchange rate between dollars and the applicable LC Alternative Currency, the Dollar Amount in dollars of cash collateral held by the Administrative Agent is less than the specified amount of cash collateral so required to be maintained by the U.S. Borrowers, the U.S. Borrowers shall, promptly following a request therefor by the Administrative Agent, deposit in the LC Collateral Account an additional amount of cash collateral in dollars equal to such shortfall to be held as cash collateral in accordance with Section 2.06(k).

SECTION 3.10 ERISA; Canadian Pension Plans. (1) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

The Obligations rank, and at all times after the Second Restatement Date will rank, senior in right of payment to the obligations of WESCO Distribution, Inc. and Holdings under the 2029 Convertible Debentures Indenture.

(q) any security interest purported to be created by any Collateral Document shall cease to be, or shall be asserted by any Loan Party not to be, a valid and perfected first priority security interest in any portion of the ABL Priority Collateral having a value in excess of $25,000,000 which is purported to be covered thereby, except as permitted by the terms of this Agreement or any Collateral Document other than as a result of any action or inaction within the control of the applicable Agents; or

(r) any material provision of any Loan Document for any reason ceases to be valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms (or any Loan Party shall challenge the enforceability of any Loan Document or shall assert in writing, or engage in any action or inaction based on any such assertion, that any provision of any of the Loan Documents has ceased to be or otherwise is not valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms), in each case, other than in connection with a termination of such Loan Document (or, with respect to any Loan Party, the release of such Loan Party from its obligations under such Loan Document) in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof;

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Borrowers described in clauses (i) or (j) of this Article), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower Representative, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the Revolving Commitments, and thereupon the Revolving Commitments shall terminate immediately and (ii) declare the Loans and other Obligations then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any Obligations not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of the Loans and other Obligations so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrowers accrued hereunder, shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers; and in case of any event with respect to the Borrowers described in clauses (i) or (j) of this Article, the Revolving Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans and other Obligations then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other Obligations of the Borrowers accrued hereunder, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers. Upon the occurrence and the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, exercise any rights and remedies provided to it under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the UCC and the PPSA. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not deliver a notice to the U.S. Borrowers instructing such Borrowers to terminate and cease all transfers of Receivables (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) from the U.S. Borrowers to WESCO Receivables prior to the occurrence of one or more of the following: (A) an Event of Default under paragraphs (i), (j) or (k) of this Article VII or (B) any declaration by the Administrative Agent that the Loans and other Obligations are due and payable pursuant to clause (ii) of this paragraph.

ARTICLE VIII.

The Administrative Agent and Canadian Administrative Agent

Each of the Lender Parties hereby irrevocably appoints each of the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent as its agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf, including execution of the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

Without limiting the generality of the paragraph above, for the purposes of creating a solidarité active in accordance with Article 1541 of the Civil Code of Québec, between each Lender Party, taken individually, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, on the other hand, each Loan Party, each such Lender Party and the Administrative Agent acknowledge and agree with the Administrative Agent that each such Lender Party and the Administrative Agent are hereby conferred the legal status of solidary creditors of each Loan Party in respect of all Obligations, present and future, owed by each such Loan Party to the Administrative Agent and each such Lender Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Solidary Claim”). Each Loan Party which is not a signatory of this Agreement but is or may become a signatory to any other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have accepted the provisions contained in this paragraph by its execution of such other Loan Documents. Accordingly, but subject (for the avoidance of doubt) to Article 1542 of the Civil Code of Québec, each such Loan Party is irrevocably bound towards the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party in respect of the entire Solidary Claim of the Administrative Agent and such Lender Party. As a result of the foregoing, the parties hereto acknowledge that the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party shall at all times have a valid and effective right of action for the entire Solidary Claim of the Administrative Agent and such Lender Party and the right to give full acquittance for same. The parties further agree and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent’s Liens on the Collateral under the Collateral Documents shall be granted to the Administrative Agent, for its own benefit and for the benefit of the Lender Parties, as solidary creditor as hereinabove set forth.

In addition, and without limiting any of the foregoing, for the purposes of holding any security granted by any Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec to secure payment of any bond issued by any Borrower or any Loan Party, each of the Lender Parties hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and, to the extent necessary, ratifies the appointment and authorization of the Administrative Agent, to act as the person holding the power of attorney (i.e. “fondé de pouvoir”) and hypothecary representative (in such capacity, the “Attorney”) of the Lender Parties as contemplated under Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec, and to enter into, to take and to hold on its behalf, and for its benefit, any hypothec, and to exercise such powers and duties that are conferred upon the Attorney under any hypothec. Moreover, without prejudice to such appointment and authorization to act as the person holding the power of attorney as aforesaid, each of the Lender Parties hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Custodian”) to act as agent and custodian for and on behalf of the Lender Parties to hold and be the sole registered holder of any bond which may be issued under any hypothec, the whole notwithstanding Section 32 of An Act respecting the special powers of legal persons (Quebec) or any other applicable law, and to execute all related documents. Each of the Attorney and the Custodian shall: (a) have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise, except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof, all rights and remedies given to the Attorney and the Custodian (as applicable) pursuant to any hypothec, bond, pledge, applicable laws or otherwise, (b) benefit from and be subject to all provisions hereof with respect to the Administrative Agent mutatis mutandis, including, without limitation, all such provisions with respect to the liability or responsibility to and indemnification by the Lender Parties, and (c) be entitled to delegate from time to time any of its powers or duties under any hypothec, bond, or pledge on such terms and conditions as it may determine from time to time. Any person who becomes a Lender Party shall, by its execution of an Assignment and Assumption, be deemed to have consented to and confirmed: (i) the Attorney as the person holding the power of attorney as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Lender Party, all actions taken by the Attorney in such capacity, and (ii) the Custodian as the agent and custodian as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Lender Party, all actions taken by the Custodian in such capacity. The substitution of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Article VIII shall also constitute the substitution of the Attorney and the Custodian.

The bank serving as the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent hereunder.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Canadian Administrative Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) neither the Administrative Agent nor the Canadian Administrative Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Canadian Administrative Agent shall have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of the Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent by the Borrower Representative or a Lender Party, and the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection with any Loan Document, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any information (whether oral or written) set forth or in connection with any Loan Document, (v) the legality, the validity, enforceability, effectiveness, adequacy or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the existence of the Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be.

The Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any representation, notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing or communication believed by it to be genuine, correct and to have been authorized, signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made or authorized by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

The Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be. The Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent thereof may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower Representative. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrowers (and, so long as no Event of Default described in clauses (a), (i), (j) or (k) of Article VII shall have occurred and be continuing, subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower Representative (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)), to appoint a successor (which shall, in the case of the Canadian Administrative Agent only, be an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent acting through a branch or an office in Canada). If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, may, on behalf of the Lender Parties, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a commercial bank or an Affiliate of any such commercial bank (which shall, in the case of the Canadian Administrative Agent only, be an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent acting through an office in Canada) and shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges, obligations and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and the retiring Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent and Canadian Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event no successor Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrowers, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (a) the retiring Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest and hypothecs granted to the Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, under any Collateral Document for the benefit of the Lender Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, shall continue to be vested with such security interest and hypothecs as collateral agent for the benefit of the Lender Parties and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of the Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, is appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance with this paragraph (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, shall have no duly or obligation to take any further action under any Collateral Document, including any action required to maintain the perfection of any such security interest), and (b) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, provided that (i) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, shall be made directly to such Person and (ii) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, shall also directly be given or made to each Lender and each Issuing Bank. Following the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent’s or Canadian Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article, Section 2.17(d) and Section 9.03, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, its sub‑agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent or Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (a) above.

All services rendered in Canada under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to be performed by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent will be performed by a Canadian resident for purposes of the ITA or an authorized foreign bank for purposes of the Bank Act (Canada).

Each Lender Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Each Lender hereby agrees that (a) it has requested a copy of each Report prepared by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent; (b) the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent (i) makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness or accuracy of any Report or any of the information contained therein or any inaccuracy or omission contained in or relating to a Report and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report; (c) the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, and that any Person performing any field examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Loan Parties and will rely significantly upon the Loan Parties’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Loan Parties’ personnel and that the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent undertake no obligation to update, correct or supplement the Reports; (d) it will keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, not share the Report with any Loan Party or any other Person except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement; and (e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, it will pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including reasonable attorney fees) incurred by as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.

The Bookrunners, the Lead Arrangers and the Co-Syndication Agents shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement, except in their capacities, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank hereunder other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to the relevant Lenders in their respective capacities as Bookrunners, Lead Arrangers and Co-Syndication Agents, as applicable, as it makes with respect to the Administrative Agent in the preceding paragraph.

The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable) authorized to act for, any other Lender. The Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall have the exclusive right on behalf of the Lenders to enforce the payment of the principal of and interest on any Loan after the date such principal or interest has become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

In its capacity, each of the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent, is a “representative” of the Secured Parties within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the New York Uniform Commercial Code. Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent, to enter into each of the Collateral Documents to which it is a party and to take all action contemplated by such documents. Each Lender agrees that no Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be) shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by any Collateral Document, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, for the benefit of the Lender Parties upon the terms of the Collateral Documents. In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, each of the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Lender Parties any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, on behalf of the Lender Parties.

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Loan Parties) may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by Electronic Systems pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. All such notices and other communications (i) sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if not given during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (b)(i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrowers or the other Loan Parties, any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Borrower’s, any Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through an Electronic System. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through an Electronic System.

SECTION 9.02 Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by any Lender Party in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Lenders Parties, hereunder and under any other Loan Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether any Lender Party may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (i) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower Representative and the Required Lenders or (ii) in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent (to the extent it is a party to such Loan Document) and each Loan Party that is a party thereto, with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (A) increase the U.S. Commitment or Canadian Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (including any such Lender that is a Defaulting Lender), (B) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon (other than any waiver of default interest or any increase in any commitment fee or participation fee during an Event of Default made with the consent of the Required Lenders), or reduce or forgive any interest or fees (other than any waiver of default interest made with the consent of the Required Lenders) payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (including any such Lender that is a Defaulting Lender), (C) postpone any scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any interest, fees or other Obligations payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, postpone the scheduled date of expiration of the Revolving Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender (including any such Lender that is a Defaulting Lender) directly affected thereby, (D) change Section 2.18(b) in any manner adverse to any Lender without such Lender’s consent or in a manner that would alter the manner in which payments are shared, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (E) increase the advance rates set forth in the definition of Canadian Borrowing Base or U.S. Borrowing Base or add new categories of eligible assets, without the written consent of the Supermajority Revolving Lenders, (F) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or “Supermajority Revolving Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, (G) release any Loan Guarantor from its obligation under its Loan Guaranty or Canadian Guarantee (except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other Loan Documents), without the written consent of each Lender, (H) except as provided in clause (c) of this Section or in any Collateral Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Swingline Lender, as the case may be (it being understood that any change to Section 2.20 shall require the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lenders and the Issuing Banks). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) the Administrative Agent may also amend the Revolving Commitment Schedule to reflect assignments entered into pursuant to Section 9.04 and (y) any amendment entered into in connection with an Aggregate Commitment Increase or a Canadian Sublimit Increase pursuant to Section 2.09(f) or Section 2.09(g), as applicable, shall require only the signature of the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers and the Lender(s) being added or increasing their Revolving Commitment(s) or Canadian Commitments, as applicable, except as otherwise provided in such Section 2.09(f).

(c) The Lender Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release (x) any guaranty provided by an Excluded Subsidiary and (y) any Liens granted to the Administrative Agent by the Loan Parties or the Canadian Loan Parties or their respective Subsidiaries, as the case may be, on any Collateral (i) upon the termination of all Revolving Commitments, payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations), and the cash collateralization of all Unliquidated Obligations in a manner reasonably satisfactory to each affected Lender Party, (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if the Loan Party disposing of such property certifies to the Administrative Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), and to the extent that the property being sold or disposed of constitutes Equity Interest of a Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent is authorized to release any Loan Guaranty or Canadian Guarantee provided by such Subsidiary, (iii) constituting property leased to a Loan Party under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, (iv) constituting an Account originated by a Loan Party which has been sold or otherwise transferred to WESCO Receivables pursuant to the Receivables Securitization Agreements; (v) as required to effect any sale or other disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Article VII; (vi) that constitutes Excluded Property; or (vii) otherwise having a value in the aggregate not in excess of $20,000,000 during any calendar year. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent will not release any Liens on Collateral valued in the aggregate (A) in excess of $20,000,000 but not in excess of $50,000,000 during any calendar year without the prior written authorization of the Required Lenders; and (B) in excess of $50,000,000 during any calendar year without the prior written authorization of the Supermajority Revolving Lenders; provided that the consent of all Lenders shall be required for a release of all or substantially all of the Collateral as provided in Section 9.02(b)(H). Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. Any execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent of documents in connection with any such release shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

(d) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrowers may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement, provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (1) shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of clause (b) of Section 9.04 and (2) such assignee bank or other entity shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent, and (ii) the Borrowers shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (1) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by the Borrowers hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 2.15 and 2.17, and (2) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 2.16 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Borrower Representative only, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency.

SECTION 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out‑of‑pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent and their Affiliates (limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one U.S. counsel and one Canadian counsel to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (and, if reasonably necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant material jurisdiction to all such persons, taken as a whole)), in connection with the syndication and distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet or through a service such as IntraLinks) of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions of the Loan Documents (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the applicable Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement, collection or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of‑pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof. Subject to the limitations set forth herein or in the Collateral Documents, expenses being reimbursed by the Borrowers under this Section include, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, costs and expenses incurred by the Agents and their Affiliates in connection with:

This Section 9.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

(b) To the extent that any Loan Party fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), or any Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank (or any Related Party of any of the foregoing) under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, such Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank (or any Related Party of any of the foregoing), as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (it being understood that the Loan Parties’ failure to pay any such amount shall not relieve any Loan Party of any default in the payment thereof); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, penalty, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, such Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank in its capacity as such.

(c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each Loan Party hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee (i) for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet), other than to the extent such damages are determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (or any of its Related Parties), or (ii) on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that, nothing in this paragraph (d) shall relieve any Loan Party of any obligation it may have to indemnify an Indemnitee against special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnitee by a third party.

(d) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

SECTION 9.04 Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by a Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(a) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Persons (other than (x) a natural person or (y) the Loan Parties or any of their Affiliates) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it):

(A) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the Borrower Representative (which consent shall be deemed to have been given by the Borrower Representative if the Borrower Representative shall not have responded within five Business Days of a request for such consent), provided that no consent of the Borrower Representative shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee;

(B) with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld); and

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Revolving Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower Representative shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more Credit Contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Loan Parties and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws.

For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning:

“Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its United States offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Commitment of, and principal amount of (and stated interest on) the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05, 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.18(d) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(a) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lenders, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.17(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.17(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.18 and 2.19 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.

Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrowers’ request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrowers to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.19(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts of (and stated interest on) each Participant's interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(a) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank (or to any other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender), and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 9.05 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Lender Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding (unless such Letter of Credit has been cash collateralized in accordance with Section 2.06(k)) and so long as the Revolving Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Revolving Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy, emailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

SECTION 9.07 Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers or any Loan Guarantor against any of and all the Secured Obligations held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be unmatured. The applicable Lender shall notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of such set-off or application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such set-off or application under this Section. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 9.09 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) The Loan Documents (other than those containing a contrary express choice of law provision) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws (and not the law of Conflicts) of the State of New York, but giving effect to federal laws applicable to national banks; provided, however, that if the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York shall govern in regard to the validity, perfection or effect of perfection of any Lien or in regard to procedural matters affecting enforcement of any Liens on all or any party of the Collateral, such laws of such other jurisdictions shall continue to apply to that extent.

(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any U.S. Federal or New York State court sitting in New York County, New York in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court; provided that claims with respect to Canadian Loan Documents may, as provided therein, also be tried in the courts of the Province of Ontario. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 9.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 9.11 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 9.12 Confidentiality. Each of the Lender Parties agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by Requirement of Laws or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Loan Parties and their obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower Representative or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to any Lender Party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers unless such Lender Party knows that such information was obtained in violation of any confidentiality agreement or arrangement. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrowers relating to the Borrowers or their business, other than any such information that is available to any Lender Party on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrowers and other than information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrowers after the Second Restatement Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 9.12 FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING HOLDINGS AND ITS AFFILIATES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWERS OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWERS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

SECTION 9.13 Several Obligations; Nonreliance; Violation of Law. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and the failure of any Lender to make any Loan or perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. Each Lender hereby represents that it is not relying on or looking to any margin stock for the repayment of the Borrowings provided for herein. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, neither any Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall be obligated to extend credit to the Borrowers in violation of any Requirement of Law.

SECTION 9.14 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “USA Patriot Act”) hereby notifies Holdings and the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Holdings, the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties, which information includes the names and addresses of Holdings, the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties and other information that will allow such Lender to identify Holdings, the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.

SECTION 9.15 Disclosure. Each Loan Party and each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent and/or its Affiliates from time to time may hold investments in, make other loans to or have other relationships with any of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates.

SECTION 9.16 Appointment for Perfection. Each Lender Party hereby appoints each other Lender Party as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Lender Parties or the Canadian Lender Parties, as the case may be, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC, the PPSA, the Securities Transfer Act (Ontario) or any other applicable law can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender Party (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender Party shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.

SECTION 9.17 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

SECTION 9.18 Judgment Currency Conversion. (a) The obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in dollars or in Canadian Dollars, as the case may be (the “Obligation Currency”), shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the applicable Loan Party of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the applicable Loan Party under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Loan Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the Administrative Agent’s quoted rate of exchange prevailing, in each case, as of the date immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Loan Parties each covenant and agree to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date. Any amount due from a Loan Party under this Section 9.18 shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents.

(c) For purposes of determining the prevailing rate of exchange, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

SECTION 9.19 Canadian Anti-Money Laundering Legislation. (a) Each Borrower acknowledges that, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime Act and other applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing, government sanction and “know your client” laws (collectively, including any guidelines or orders thereunder, “AML Legislation”), the Lender Parties may be required to obtain, verify and record information regarding the Borrowers and their respective directors, authorized signing officers, direct or indirect shareholders or other Persons in control of the Borrowers, and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Borrower shall promptly provide all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested by any Lender Party or any prospective assignee or Participant of a Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Agent, in order to comply with any applicable AML Legislation, whether now or hereafter in existence.

(b) If the Canadian Administrative Agent has ascertained the identity of any Borrower or any authorized signatories of the Borrower for the purposes of applicable AML Legislation, then the Canadian Administrative Agent:

(i) shall be deemed to have done so as an agent for each Lender Party, and this Agreement shall constitute a “written agreement” in such regard between each Lender Party and the Canadian Administrative Agent within the meaning of the applicable AML Legislation; and

(ii) shall provide to each Lender Party copies of all information obtained in such regard without any representation or warranty as to its accuracy or completeness.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence and except as may otherwise be agreed in writing, each of the Lender Parties agrees that neither the Canadian Administrative Agent nor any other Agent has any obligation to ascertain the identity of the Borrowers or any authorized signatories of the Borrowers on behalf of any Lender Party, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy of any information it obtains from any Borrower or any such authorized signatory in doing so.

(i) “CAM” means the mechanism for the allocation and exchange of interests in the Loans, participations in Letters of Credit and collections thereunder established under Section 9.20(b).

(iv) “CAM Percentage” means as to each Lender, a fraction, (a) the numerator of which shall be the aggregate amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitments immediately prior to the CAM Exchange Date and the termination of the Revolving Commitments, and (b) the denominator of which shall be the amount of the Revolving Commitments of all the Lenders immediately prior to the CAM Exchange Date and the termination of the Revolving Commitments.

(D) the Lenders shall purchase in dollars at par interests in the Designated Obligations under each Revolver Facility (and shall make payments in dollars to the Administrative Agent for reallocation to other Lenders to the extent necessary to give effect to such purchases) and shall assume the obligations to reimburse Issuing Banks for unreimbursed LC Disbursements under outstanding Letters of Credit under such Revolver Facility such that, in lieu of the interests of each Lender in the Designated Obligations under the U.S. Commitments and the Canadian Commitments in which it shall have participated immediately prior to the CAM Exchange Date, such Lender shall own an interest equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage in each component of the Designated Obligations immediately following the CAM Exchange.

(ii) Each Lender and each Person acquiring a participation from any Lender as contemplated by this Section 9.20 hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange. Each Borrower agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to the Lenders all such promissory notes and other instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request to evidence and confirm the respective interests and obligations of the Lenders after giving effect to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees to surrender any promissory notes originally received by it in connection with its Loans under this Agreement to the Administrative Agent against delivery of any promissory notes so executed and delivered; provided that the failure of any Lender to deliver or accept any such promissory note, instrument or document shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the CAM Exchange.

(iii) As a result of the CAM Exchange, from and after the CAM Exchange Date, each payment received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of any of the Designated Obligations shall be distributed to the Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective CAM Percentages.

(iv) In the event that on or after the CAM Exchange Date, the aggregate amount of the Designated Obligations shall change as a result of the making of a disbursement under a Letter of Credit by an Issuing Bank that is not reimbursed by the U.S. Borrowers or the Canadian Borrowers, if applicable, then each Lender shall promptly reimburse such Issuing Bank in dollars for the Dollar Amount of its CAM Percentage of such unreimbursed payment.

Any amounts so withheld or deducted shall be treated as, for the purpose of this Section 9.20, having been paid to such Lender Party to which such withholding or deduction was made.

SECTION 9.21 Restatement. As of the Second Restatement Date, the terms, conditions, agreements, covenants, representations and warranties set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement are hereby amended, restated, replaced and superseded in their entirety by this Agreement, provided that (a) nothing herein shall impair or adversely affect the continuation of the liability and obligations of the Loan Parties under the Existing Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, (b) nothing herein shall be construed to constitute payment of, or impair, limit, cancel or extinguish, or constitute a novation in respect of, the Indebtedness and other obligations and liabilities of the Loan Parties evidenced by or arising under the Existing Credit Agreement or the other Existing Loan Documents, as amended hereby, and (c) nothing herein shall be construed to impair, limit, terminate, release or adversely affect the liens and security interests in favor of the Administrative Agent securing such Indebtedness and other obligations and liabilities.

SECTION 9.22 ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement.

To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Loan Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, the Bookrunners, the Lead Arrangers, the Co-Syndication Agents, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates with respect to any breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any transaction contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

SCHEDULE 1.01

MANDATORY COST FORMULAE

A.Pursuant to Section 2.06(i) of this Agreement, unreimbursed LC Disbursements made in an LC Alternative Currency bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight LIBO Rate plus the Overnight LIBO Spread as set forth in the definition of “Applicable Rate”. Such interest accrues for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on or after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.06(e) of this Agreement to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be or the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the Overnight LIBO Rate to compensate the Issuing Banks and the Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the United Kingdom’s Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank. For purposes of paragraphs 2 through 13 of this Schedule 1.01, each Issuing Bank issuing a Letter of Credit in an LC Alternative Currency shall be deemed to be a “Lender” and each LC Disbursement by any Issuing Bank in an LC Alternative Currency and each reimbursement by any Lender to the Issuing Bank in respect of any such LC Disbursement shall be deemed to be a “Loan” or “loan” by such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as applicable.

B. On the first day on which interest accrues on any LC Disbursement that bears interest at the Overnight LIBO Rate (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Administrative Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each relevant Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as a weighted average of the relevant Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each such Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

C. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Administrative Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Administrative Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all relevant Loans made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office.

D. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as follows:

1. in relation to a relevant Loan denominated in Sterling:



AB+C(B—D)+E x 0.01 100 -(A + C)	percent per annum

2. in relation to a relevant Loan in any currency other than Sterling:



E x 0.01 300	percent per annum

Where:

(a) is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements.

(b) is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Rate and the Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is an Unpaid Sum, the additional rate of interest specified in Section 2.13(f) of this Agreement) payable for the relevant period on the Loan.

(c) is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest-bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England.

(d) is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Administrative Agent (or such other bank as may be designated by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower Representative) on interest-bearing Special Deposits.

(e) is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Administrative Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in Sterling per £1.0 million.

E. For the purposes of this Schedule:

1. “Eligible Liabilities” and “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the United Kingdom’s Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England;

2. “Facility Office” means the office or offices notified by a Lender to the Administrative Agent in writing on or before the date it becomes a Lender (or, following that date, by not less than five Business Days’ written notice) as the office or offices through which it will perform its obligations under this Agreement;

3. “Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the Financial Services Authority Fees Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;

4. “Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate);

5. “Participating Member State” means each State so described in any legislative measures of the European Council for the introduction of, change over to, or operation of a single or unified European Community, and includes, without limitation, each member State of the European Community that adopts or has adopted the Euro as its lawful currency in accordance with the aforementioned legislative procedures.

6. “Reference Banks” means the principal office in London, England of the Administrative Agent or its affiliate, or such other bank or banks as may be designated by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower Representative;

7. “Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules; and

8. “Unpaid Sum” means any sum due and payable but unpaid by any Loan Party under the Loan Documents.

F. In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 percent will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05). A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places.

G. If requested by the Administrative Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the United Kingdom’s Financial Services Authority, supply to the Administrative Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the United Kingdom’s Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the United Kingdom’s Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in Sterling per £1.0 million of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.

H. Each relevant Lender shall supply any information required by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each relevant Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender:

1. the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and

2. any other information that the Administrative Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

I. The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C and the rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E shall be determined by the Administrative Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Administrative Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office.

J. The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 is true and correct in all respects.

K. The Administrative Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the relevant Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each such Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8.

L. Any determination by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties to this Agreement.

M. The Administrative Agent may from time to time, after consultation with Borrower Representative and the Lenders, determine and notify to all parties to this Agreement any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule 1.01 in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the United Kingdom’s Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties to this Agreement.

The granting of the pledge and security interest pursuant to this US Security Agreement does not make the Administrative Agent a successor to such Grantor as a member or shareholder of any ULC, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its respective successors or assigns hereunder shall be deemed to become a member or shareholder of any ULC by accepting this US Security Agreement or exercising any right granted herein unless and until such time, if any, when the Administrative Agent or any successor or assign expressly becomes a registered member or shareholder of any ULC.

To the extent any provision hereof would have the effect of constituting the Administrative Agent to be a member or shareholder of any ULC prior to such time that written notice is delivered to such Grantor, such provision shall be severed herefrom and ineffective with respect to the relevant Pledged ULC Shares without otherwise invalidating or rendering unenforceable this US Security Agreement or invalidating or rendering unenforceable such provision insofar as it relates to Collateral other than Pledged ULC Shares. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (except to the extent, if any, that the Administrative Agent or any of its successors or assigns hereafter expressly becomes a registered member or shareholder of any ULC), neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its respective successors or assigns shall be deemed to have assumed or otherwise become liable for any debts or obligations of any ULC. Except upon the exercise by the Administrative Agent or other Persons of rights to sell or otherwise dispose of Pledged ULC Shares or other remedies following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Grantor shall not cause or permit, or enable any ULC in which it holds Pledged ULC Shares to cause or permit, the Administrative Agent to: (i) be registered as member or shareholder of such ULC; (ii) have any notation entered in its favor in the share register of such ULC; (iii) be held out as member or shareholder of such ULC; (iv) receive, directly or indirectly, any dividends, property or other distributions from such ULC by reason of the Administrative Agent or other Person holding a security interest in the Pledged ULC Shares; or (v) act as a member or shareholder of such ULC, or exercise any rights of a member or shareholder of such ULC, including the right to attend a meeting of such ULC or vote the shares of such ULC.

(d)Such Grantor shall take all actions necessary to maintain and pursue each application, to obtain the relevant registration and to maintain the registration of each of its Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights (now or hereafter existing) that are material to the conduct of the business of Holdings, the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, including the filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of noncontestability and opposition and interference and cancellation proceedings or if such Grantor determines in its commercial reasonable business judgment exercised in good faith that the maintenance or pursuit of any such Patent, Trademark, or Copyright is no longer necessary to the conduct of such Grantor’s business.

(e)In the event that any Grantor knows or has reason to believe that any Collateral consisting of a Patent, Trademark or Copyright that is material to the conduct of the business of Holdings, the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, has been or is being infringed, misappropriated, diluted or otherwise violated by a third person, such Grantor shall, if consistent with good business judgment, promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation, and take such other actions as are appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Collateral.

The amount of flood insurance required by this Section shall be in an amount as to comply with the National Flood Insurance Program as set forth in the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as it may be amended from time to time.

(i)subject to Section 3.13(d) with respect to Pledged ULC Shares, those rights and remedies provided in this US Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document; provided that, this Section 5.2(a) shall not be understood to limit any rights or remedies available to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders prior to an Event of Default;

(ii)those rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) or under any other applicable law (including, without limitation, any law governing the exercise of a bank's right of setoff or bankers' lien) when a debtor is in default under a security agreement;

(iii)without notice (except where written notice may be required pursuant to Section 3.13(d) in the case of Pledged ULC Shares, or as specifically provided in Section 9.1 or elsewhere herein), demand or advertisement of any kind to any Grantor or any other Person, enter the premises of any Grantor where any Collateral is located (through self-help and without judicial process) to collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, sell, lease, assign, grant an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of, deliver, or realize upon, the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales (which sales may be adjourned or continued from time to time with or without notice and may take place at any Grantor's premises or elsewhere), for cash, on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable; and

(iv)concurrently with written notice to the applicable Grantor, or written notice in accordance with Section 3.13(d) in the case of Pledged ULC Shares, transfer and register in its name or in the name of its nominee the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations, exercise the voting and all other rights as a holder with respect thereto, to collect and receive all cash dividends, interest, principal and other distributions made thereon and to otherwise act with respect to the Pledged Collateral as though the Administrative Agent was the outright owner thereof.

(b)In addition to (and without limitation of) all of the rights of the Administrative Agent set forth herein, during a Cash Dominion Period, the Administrative Agent shall have all of the rights set forth in Section 7.2.

(c)The Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Lenders, may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

(d)The Administrative Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right of equity redemption, which equity redemption the Grantor hereby expressly releases.

(e)Until the Administrative Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the Administrative Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Lenders), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment.

(f)If, after the Credit Agreement has terminated by its terms and all of the Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been asserted), there remain Swap Obligations outstanding, the Required Secured Parties may exercise the remedies provided in this Section 5.2 upon the occurrence of any event which would allow or require the termination or acceleration of any Swap Obligations pursuant to the terms of the Swap Agreement.

(g)Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall be required to (i) make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of its rights or remedies against, any Grantor, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Secured Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of its rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof, (ii) marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Secured Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order, or (iii) effect a public sale of any Collateral.

(h)Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Collateral and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof in accordance with clause (a) above. Each Grantor also acknowledges that any private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such sale being private. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit any Grantor or the issuer of the Pledged Collateral to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws, even if the applicable Grantor and the issuer would agree to do so.

5.3. Grantor's Obligations Upon Default. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, each Grantor will:

(b)permit the Administrative Agent, by the Administrative Agent's representatives and agents, to enter, occupy and use any premises where all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records relating thereto, or both, are located, to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, to remove all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, and to conduct sales of the Collateral, without any obligation to pay the Grantor for such use and occupancy;

(c)prepare and file, or cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to prepare and file, with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other applicable government agency, registration statements, a prospectus and such other documentation in connection with the Pledged Collateral as the Administrative Agent may request, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and furnish to the Administrative Agent, or cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to furnish to the Administrative Agent, any information regarding the Pledged Collateral in such detail as the Administrative Agent may reasonably specify;

(d)take, or cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to take, any and all actions necessary to register or qualify the Pledged Collateral to enable the Administrative Agent to consummate a public sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral; and

(e)at its own expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the independent certified public accountants then engaged by each Grantor to prepare and deliver to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent and each Lender, at any time, and from time to time, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request, the following reports with respect to the applicable Grantor: (i) a reconciliation of all Accounts; (ii) an aging of all Accounts; (iii) trial balances; and (iv) a test verification of such Accounts.

5.4. Grant of Intellectual Property License. For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise the rights and remedies under this Article V at such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies and subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, each Grantor hereby (a) grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Lenders, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Grantor) to use, license or sublicense any intellectual property rights now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof and (b) irrevocably agrees that the Administrative Agent may sell any of such Grantor's Inventory directly to any person, including without limitation persons who have previously purchased the Grantor's Inventory from such Grantor and in connection with any such sale or other enforcement of the Administrative Agent's rights under this US Security Agreement, may sell Inventory which bears any Trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and any Inventory that is covered by any Copyright owned by or licensed to such Grantor and the Administrative Agent may finish any work in process and affix any Trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and sell such Inventory as provided herein.

The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Lenders, under this Section 6.2 are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any such powers.

ARTICLE VII

COLLECTION AND APPLICATION OF COLLATERAL PROCEEDS; DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS

7.1. Collection of Receivables. As of the date of this US Security Agreement, all Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Lock Boxes established by the Grantors with any banking institution, securities broker, securities intermediary or other financial institution are listed in Part I of Exhibit B hereto. As of the date of this US Security Agreement, all Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Lock Boxes established by WESCO Receivables with any banking institution, securities broker, securities intermediary or other financial institution are listed in Part II of Exhibit B hereto. Prior to the earlier of (i) termination of the Receivables Securitization or (ii) the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default and delivery of a Receivables Termination Notice (as such term is defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) by the Administrative Agent to the Receivables Agent (as such term is defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), the Grantors shall continue to direct their Account Debtors to remit all cash, checks, electronic funds transfers and other similar payments relating to or constituting payments made in respect of Receivables directly to either a Deposit Account or a Lock Box set forth in either Part I or Part II of Exhibit B. After delivery of a Receivables Termination Notice by the Administrative Agent to the Receivables Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Grantors shall direct, and shall cause WESCO Receivables to direct, all Account Debtors to remit all cash, checks, electronic funds transfers and other similar payments relating to or constituting payments made in respect of Receivables directly to Deposit Accounts or Lock Boxes established and maintained in the name of any Grantor. If any Grantor should refuse or neglect to notify any Account Debtor to forward payments directly to a Deposit Account or Lock Box established and maintained in the name of any Grantor after delivery of a Receivables Termination Notice by the Administrative Agent to the Receivables Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to make such notification directly to such Account Debtor.

7.2. Application of Funds During a Cash Dominion Period. At all times during a Cash Dominion Period, the Grantors shall comply and shall cause the US Cash Management Bank to comply with the provisions of Section 5.12(d) of the Credit Agreement. At all times during a Cash Dominion Period, the Administrative Agent shall have the right (i) to declare that full cash dominion is in effect, (ii) to give a notice of sole control or other instruction under any Control Agreement, (iii) to notify each banking institution, securities broker or securities intermediary (including the US Cash Management Bank) at which any Grantor maintains any Deposit Account or Securities Accounts (in each case, other than Excluded Accounts), that (A) the Administrative Agent has taken full dominion and control over all Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts (in each case, other than Excluded Accounts) and all funds from time to time on deposit therein, (B) such banking institutions, securities brokers and securities intermediaries shall follow all instructions given by the Administrative Agent with respect to such Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts, and (C) such banking institutions shall remit directly to the US Collection Account (or to such other account as the Administrative Agent may direct), on a daily basis (or on such other basis as the Administrative Agent shall direct) all funds from time to time deposited into such Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts, and (iv) to automatically apply, on a daily basis, all funds remitted to the US Collection Account (or to such other account as the Administrative Agent shall so direct), from all such Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts, and all other proceeds of the Collateral, to repay the Loans and other Obligations in accordance with Sections 2.11 and 2.18 of the Credit Agreement.

7.3. Covenant Regarding New Deposit Accounts; Lock Boxes. Before opening or replacing any Deposit Account or Securities Account (other than an Excluded Account), or establishing a new Lock Box, each Grantor shall cause each bank or financial institution in which it seeks to open (i) a Deposit Account, Securities Account, or Lock Box (other than an Excluded Account) to enter into a Control Agreement with the Administrative Agent in order to give the Administrative Agent Control of such Deposit Account, Securities Account, or Lock Box. In addition, at any time, if reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, each Grantor agrees to establish and maintain in its name a new Lock Box with the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in order to effect the provisions of Section 7.1. In the case of any Deposit Account, Securities Account or Lock Box maintained with any Lender, the terms of such letter shall be subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement regarding setoffs.

7.4. Application of Proceeds; Deficiency. In the case of any sale or other disposition of Collateral by the Administrative Agent in the exercise of its remedies provided herein or in any other Loan Document, the proceeds of such sale shall be applied (and allocated) by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement. In the event that the proceeds from any sale or other disposition of Collateral are insufficient to pay all Secured Obligations in full, the Grantors shall remain liable for any deficiency, including any attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by the Agents or any Lender to collect such deficiency.

ARTICLE VIII

LOAN GUARANTY

8.1. Guaranty. Subject to Section 8.16 hereof and Section 12.01 of the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Lender Parties, the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Secured Obligations (the “Guaranteed Obligations”; provided, however, that the definition of “Guaranteed Obligations” shall not create any guarantee by any Guarantor of (or grant of security interest by any Guarantor to support, as applicable) any Excluded Swap Agreement Obligations of such Guarantor for purposes of determining any obligations of any Guarantor)). Each Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal. All terms of this Article VIII apply to and may be enforced by or on behalf of any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of any Lender Party that extended any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations.

8.2. Guaranty of Payment. This Loan Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each Guarantor waives any right to require any Lender Party to sue any Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor, or any other person obligated for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations (each, an “Obligated Party”), or otherwise to enforce its payment against any collateral securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.

8.3. No Discharge or Diminishment of Loan Guaranty. (a) Except as otherwise provided for herein, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration, or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Obligated Party, or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Obligated Party; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Guarantor may have at any time against any Obligated Party, any Lender Party, or any other person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions.

(b) The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Obligated Party, of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof (in each case, other than payment or performance).

(c) Further, the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of any Lender Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection, or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations of any Borrower for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any obligations of any other guarantor of or other person liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by any Lender Party with respect to any collateral securing any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations).

8.4. Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Borrower or any other Guarantor or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower or any Guarantor, other than the payment or performance. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any person against any Obligated Party, or any other person. Each Guarantor confirms that it is not a surety under any state law and shall not raise any such law as a defense to its obligations hereunder. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any collateral securing all or a part of the Guaranteed Obligations, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against any Obligated Party or any security.

8.5. Rights of Subrogation. No Guarantor will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it has against any Obligated Party, or any collateral, until the Loan Parties and the Guarantors have fully performed all their obligations to the Lender Parties and no Obligations are outstanding.

8.6. Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Article VIII with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made and whether or not the Lender Parties are in possession of this Loan Guaranty. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors forthwith on demand by the Lender Parties.

8.7. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrowers’ financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Guarantor assumes and incurs under this Article VIII, and agrees that no Lender Party shall have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

8.8. Termination. The Lender Parties may continue to make loans or extend credit to the Borrowers based on this Loan Guaranty until five days after it receives written notice of termination from any Guarantor. Notwithstanding receipt of any such notice, each Guarantor will continue to be liable to the Lenders for any Guaranteed Obligations created, assumed or committed to prior to the fifth day after receipt of the notice, and all subsequent renewals, extensions, modifications and amendments with respect to, or substitutions for, all or any part of such Guaranteed Obligations.

8.9. Taxes. Each payment of the Guaranteed Obligations will be made by each Guarantor without withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law subject to Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement.

8.10. Maximum Liability. The provisions of this Loan Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Guarantor’s liability under this Loan Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Guarantors or the Lender Parties, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”). This Section with respect to the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Lender Parties to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no Guarantor nor any other person or entity shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor without impairing this Loan Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of the Lender Parties hereunder; provided that nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability.

8.11. Contribution. In the event any Guarantor (a “Paying Guarantor”) shall make any payment or payments under this Loan Guaranty or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Loan Guaranty, each other Guarantor (each a “Non-Paying Guarantor”) shall contribute to such Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Applicable Percentage” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Guarantor. For purposes of this Article VIII, each Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Applicable Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Guarantor from the Borrowers after the Second Restatement Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all Guarantor hereunder (including such Paying Guarantor) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has not been determined for any Guarantor, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Guarantors from the Borrowers after the Second Restatement Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any Guarantor’s several liability for the entire amount of the Guaranteed Obligations (up to such Guarantor’s Maximum Liability). Each of the Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Loan Guaranty from a Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations. This provision is for the benefit of both the Lender Parties and the Guarantors and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

8.12. Liability Cumulative. The liability of each Guarantor under this Article VIII is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Guarantor to the Lender Parties under this US Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other Loan Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

8.13. Keepwell. Subject to Section 8.16 hereof and Section 12.01 of the Credit Agreement, each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guarantee in respect of a Swap Obligation (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 8.13 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 8.13 or otherwise under this Loan Guaranty voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). Except as otherwise provided herein, the obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 8.13 shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of all Swap Obligations. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 8.13 constitute, and this Section 8.13 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

8.14. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor represents and warrants (i) as of the date hereof that each of the representations and warranties set forth in Article III of the Credit Agreement is true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof and (ii) as of the date of any Borrowing or the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit, as applicable, that each of the representations and warranties set forth in Article III of the Credit Agreement is true and correct in all material respects; except, in each case, that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof on and as of such date (it being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of a specified date shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects only as of such specified date, and that any representation or warranty which is subject to any materiality qualifier shall be required to be true and correct in all respects).

8.15. Covenants. Until all the Revolving Commitments have expired or been terminated and the principal of and interest on each Loan and all fees payable under the Credit Agreement shall have been paid in full and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or terminated (or have been cash collateralized in accordance with Section 2.06(k) of the Credit Agreement) and all LC Disbursements shall have been reimbursed, each Guarantor covenants and agrees, jointly and severally with all of the Guarantors but subject to Section 8.16 hereof and Section 12.01 of the Credit Agreement, that each such Guarantor will perform and observe all of the terms, covenants and agreements set forth in the Loan Documents on its or their part to be performed or observed or that Holdings or any Borrower has agreed to cause such Guarantor to perform or observe (including, without limitation, the terms, covenants and agreements set forth in Articles V and VI of the Credit Agreement).

8.16. Bifurcation. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, in no event shall any Canadian Loan Guarantor or Dutch Loan Guarantor be liable for any obligation of any U.S. Loan Party or CFC Subsidiary Holding Company.

ARTICLE IX

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Waivers. Each Grantor hereby waives notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be made. To the extent such notice may not be waived under applicable law, any notice made shall be deemed reasonable if sent to the Grantors, addressed as set forth in Article X, at least ten (10) days prior to (i) the date of any such public sale or (ii) the time after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Administrative Agent or any Lender arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral, except to the extent arising out of the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Lender as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any valuation, stay, appraisal, extension, moratorium, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this US Security Agreement, or otherwise. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this US Security Agreement or any Collateral.

9.1. Limitation on Administrative Agent's and Lenders' Duty with Respect to the Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Administrative Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is commercially reasonable for the Administrative Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Administrative Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as such Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Administrative Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Administrative Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Administrative Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 9.2 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Administrative Agent would be commercially reasonable in the Administrative Agent's exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 9.2. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 9.2 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Administrative Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this US Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 9.2.

9.2. Compromises and Collection of Collateral. The Grantors and the Administrative Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims, defenses and other claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and probability of success in litigating a disputed Receivable may exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent may, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, at any time and from time to time, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Administrative Agent shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Administrative Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action.

9.3. Secured Party Performance of Debtor Obligations. Without having any obligation to do so, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent may perform or pay any obligation which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay in this US Security Agreement and the Grantors shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any amounts paid by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.4. The Grantors’ obligation to reimburse the Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be a Secured Obligation payable on demand.

9.4. Specific Performance of Certain Covenants. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 4.1(d), 4.1(e), 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15, 5.3, or 8.7 or in Article VII will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, that the Administrative Agent and Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breaches and therefore agrees, without limiting the right of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to seek and obtain specific performance of other obligations of the Grantors contained in this US Security Agreement, that, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, the covenants of the Grantors contained in the Sections referred to in this Section 9.5 shall be specifically enforceable against the Grantors.

9.5. Dispositions Not Authorized. No Grantor is authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral except as set forth in Section 4.1(d) and notwithstanding any course of dealing between any Grantor and the Administrative Agent or other conduct of the Administrative Agent, no authorization to sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral (except as set forth in Section 4.1(d) or as otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement) shall be binding upon the Administrative Agent or the Lenders unless such authorization is in writing signed by the Administrative Agent with the consent or at the direction of the Required Secured Parties.

9.6. No Waiver; Amendments; Cumulative Remedies. No delay or omission of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any right or remedy granted under this US Security Agreement shall impair such right or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of this US Security Agreement whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Administrative Agent with the concurrence or at the direction of the Lenders required under Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All rights and remedies contained in this US Security Agreement or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders until the termination of this US Security Agreement in accordance with Section 9.16.

9.7. Limitation by Law; Severability of Provisions. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this US Security Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this US Security Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this US Security Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded or registered, in whole or in part. Any provision in this US Security Agreement that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of this US Security Agreement are declared to be severable.

9.8. Reinstatement. This US Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of the payment so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned and shall be reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

9.9. Benefit of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this US Security Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Grantors, the Agents and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns (including all persons who become bound as a debtor to this US Security Agreement), except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this US Security Agreement or any interest herein, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. No sales of participations, assignments, transfers, or other dispositions of any agreement governing the Secured Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Lenders, hereunder.

9.10. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the Grantors contained in this US Security Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this US Security Agreement.

9.11. Taxes and Expenses. The Grantors shall be joint and severally obligated to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any amounts due by a Loan Party under Section 2.17 and Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement.

9.12. Headings. The title of and section headings in this US Security Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of this US Security Agreement.

9.13. Other Pledge Agreements. The parties acknowledge and agree that certain of the Equity Interests constituting Pledged Collateral under this US Security Agreement (the “Applicable Equity Interests”) may also be pledged to the Administrative Agent under a pledge agreement governed by the laws of Canada (or one or more provinces thereof) or the Netherlands (collectively, the “Foreign Pledge Agreements” and each individually, a “Foreign Pledge Agreement”). If, in connection with any exercise of remedies by the Administrative Agent under any Foreign Pledge Agreement, a court of competent jurisdiction in Canada or the Netherlands, as applicable, determines that the pledge of the Applicable Equity Interests is governed by such Foreign Pledge Agreement, then such Foreign Pledge Agreement (and not this US Security Agreement) shall control and shall supersede this US Security Agreement, in each case, solely with respect to the pledge of such Applicable Equity Interests.

9.14. Credit Agreement; Intercreditor Agreement; ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this US Security Agreement, the rights of the parties hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement, including the provisions thereof pertaining to the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent. In the event that any provision of this US Security Agreement is in conflict with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Credit Agreement shall control. Furthermore, notwithstanding any other provision of this US Security Agreement, the rights of the parties hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, including the provisions thereof pertaining to the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent with respect to Accounts. To the extent any provision of this US Security Agreement pertaining to Accounts is in conflict with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the rights of the parties hereunder and the priority of the Lien and security interest granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto or pursuant to any other Loan Document and the exercise of any right or remedy in respect of the Collateral by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to the provisions of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement. To the extent any provision of this US Security Agreement (other than Article II hereof) is in conflict with the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement shall control. The delivery of any Collateral to the Collateral Agent (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) under the Term Loan Agreement pursuant to the Term Loan Documents shall satisfy any delivery requirement hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the extent that such delivery is consistent with the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement.

9.19. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GRANTOR, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS US SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED THEREUNDER.

FORM OF SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CANADIAN GUARANTEE


TO:	JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., AS ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT for itself and certain financial institutions from time to time party to the Credit Agreement (as such term is hereinafter defined).

RECITALS:


A.	The Administrative Agent, certain other Lender Parties (as defined in the hereinafter defined Original Credit Agreement) and certain Loan Parties (as defined in the hereinafter defined Original Credit Agreement) entered into a credit agreement dated as of August 22, 2011 (the "Original Credit Agreement").


B.	In connection with the Original Credit Agreement, the Canadian Guarantors (as defined in the hereinafter defined Original Guarantees) entered into a Canadian guarantee in favour of the Administrative Agent, dated as of August 22, 2011 (each, an "Original Guarantee" and collectively, the "Original Guarantees").


C.	The Original Credit Agreement was amended and restated in its entirety pursuant to the amended and restated credit agreement dated as of December 12, 2012 by and among, among others, the Administrative Agent, the other Lender Parties (as defined in the hereinafter defined First ARCA), and the Loan Parties (as defined in the hereinafter defined First ARCA) (the “First ARCA”).


D.	In connection with the First ARCA, each of the Canadian Loan Guarantors (as defined in the hereinafter defined First Restated Guarantee) entered into an amended and restated Canadian guarantee (the "First Restated Guarantee") which amended and restated in its entirety its Original Guarantee pursuant to the terms thereof.

The First Restated Credit Agreement is being amended and restated in its entirety pursuant to the second amended and restated credit agreement dated as of the date hereof by and among, among others, the Administrative Agent, the other Lender Parties (as defined in the hereinafter defined Credit Agreement), and the Borrowers (as defined in the hereinafter defined Credit Agreement). All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement (hereinafter defined).


F.	In connection with the Credit Agreement, each of the undersigned, as a guarantor of the Canadian Secured Obligations, is required to enter into this second amended and restated Canadian guarantee (the “Canadian Guarantee”) and has agreed to amend and restate in its entirety, its First Restated Guarantee pursuant to the terms hereof.

NOW ACCORDINGLY each of the undersigned, jointly and severally, hereby agree as follows:

For valuable consideration, each of the signatories hereto (each, a "Canadian Loan Guarantor" and collectively, the "Canadian Loan Guarantors"), subject to Section 29 hereof and Section 12.01 of the Credit Agreement, hereby unconditionally guarantees and promises to pay, jointly and severally, to JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as administrative agent (the "Administrative Agent") for itself and the Canadian Lender Parties, or order, on demand, any and all indebtedness of WESCO Distribution Canada LP WDCC Enterprises, Inc., EECOL Electric ULC, Hazmasters Inc. and Hazmasters Quebec Inc. (together with all other entities who are or may from time to time be party to the Credit Agreement as Canadian Borrowers, the "Canadian Borrowers") to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lender Parties including pursuant to a second amended and restated credit agreement dated as of September 24, 2015 by and among, amongst others, the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Borrowers, as the same may be amended, supplemented, revised, restated or replaced from time to time (the "Credit Agreement"). The word "indebtedness" is used herein in its most comprehensive sense and includes any and all advances, debts, obligations and liabilities of the Canadian Borrowers, heretofore, now, or hereafter made, incurred or created, whether voluntary or involuntary and however arising, whether direct or acquired by the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties by assignment or succession, whether due or not due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined, and whether any Canadian Borrower may be liable individually or jointly with others, or whether recovery upon such indebtedness may be or hereafter become barred by any statute of limitations, or whether such indebtedness may be or hereafter become otherwise unenforceable.

The liability of each Canadian Loan Guarantor under this Canadian Guarantee shall be unlimited. Regardless of whether or not any proposed guarantor or any other person or persons has or have executed or shall execute this Canadian Guarantee or is or are or shall become in any other way responsible to the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties for the indebtedness or any part thereof whether under this Canadian Guarantee or otherwise shall cease to be so liable, this shall be a continuing Canadian Guarantee relating to any indebtedness, including that arising under successive transactions which shall either continue the indebtedness or from time to time renew it after it has been satisfied and shall secure the ultimate repayment of all monies owing from the Canadian Borrowers to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lender Parties and shall be binding as a continuing security on each Canadian Loan Guarantor. Any payment by a Canadian Loan Guarantor shall not reduce the maximum obligation of such Canadian Loan Guarantor hereunder.

The obligations hereunder are independent of the obligations of the Canadian Borrowers and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Canadian Loan Guarantor whether action is brought against the Canadian Borrowers or whether the Canadian Borrowers be joined in any such action or actions; and each Canadian Loan Guarantor waives the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability.


4.	Each Canadian Loan Guarantor authorizes the Administrative Agent, without notice or demand and without affecting its liability hereunder, from time to time, to:


(a)	renew, compromise, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or otherwise change the terms of the indebtedness or any part thereof, including increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon;


(b)	receive and hold security for the payment of this Canadian Guarantee or the indebtedness guaranteed, and exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any such security;


(c)	apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Administrative Agent in its discretion may determine; and


(d)	release or substitute any guarantors.


5.	Each Canadian Loan Guarantor waives any right to require the Administrative Agent or any of the Canadian Lender Parties to:


(a)	proceed against any Canadian Borrower;


(b)	proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Canadian Borrower or any other person; or


(c)	pursue any other remedy in the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lender Parties' power whatsoever.

Each Canadian Loan Guarantor waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Canadian Borrowers, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the Canadian Borrowers, or any claim that such Canadian Loan Guarantor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Canadian Borrowers, each Canadian Loan Guarantor waives any right of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification, and contribution (contractual, statutory or otherwise), arising from the existence or performance of this Canadian Guarantee and each Canadian Loan Guarantor waives any right to enforce any remedy which the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties now have or may hereafter have against the Canadian Borrowers, and waives any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter held by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lender Parties. The Administrative Agent may foreclose, either by judicial foreclosure or by exercise of power of sale, or realize any deed of trust or other security securing the indebtedness, and, even though the foreclosure or other realization may destroy or diminish any Canadian Loan Guarantor’s rights against the Canadian Borrowers or may result in security being sold at an under value, such Canadian Loan Guarantor shall be liable to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lender Parties for any part of the indebtedness remaining unpaid after the foreclosure or other realization. Each Canadian Loan Guarantor waives all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonour, and notices of acceptance of this Canadian Guarantee and of the existence, creation, or incurring of new or additional indebtedness.

Each Canadian Loan Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it shall have the sole responsibility for obtaining from the Canadian Borrowers such information concerning the Canadian Borrowers' financial conditions or business operations as such Canadian Loan Guarantor may require, and that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Canadian Lender Parties have any duty at any time to disclose to such Canadian Loan Guarantor any information relating to the business operations or financial conditions of any Canadian Borrower.

Any obligations of a Canadian Borrower to a Canadian Loan Guarantor, now or hereafter existing, including but not limited to any obligations to such Canadian Loan Guarantor as subrogee of the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lender Parties or resulting from such Canadian Loan Guarantor’s performance under this Canadian Guarantee, are hereby assigned to the Administrative Agent and postponed and subordinated to the indebtedness. Any such obligations of the Canadian Borrowers to a Canadian Loan Guarantor received by such Canadian Loan Guarantor shall be received in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lender Parties and the proceeds thereof shall forthwith be paid over to the Administrative Agent on account of the indebtedness of the Canadian Borrowers to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lender Parties, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Canadian Loan Guarantor under the provisions of this Canadian Guarantee. This assignment and postponement is independent of and severable from this Canadian Guarantee and shall remain in full force and effect whether or not a Canadian Loan Guarantor is liable for any amount under this Canadian Guarantee.

Where any Canadian Borrower becomes bankrupt or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or if any circumstances arise necessitating the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties to file a claim against such Canadian Borrower and/or to value its securities, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to place such valuation on its securities as the Administrative Agent may in its absolute discretion see fit and the filing of such claim and the valuing of securities shall not in any way prejudice or restrict the claim of the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lender Parties against any Canadian Loan Guarantor and in no way discharges such Canadian Loan Guarantor from its liability hereunder to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lender Parties, either in whole or in part and until all indebtedness of the Canadian Borrowers to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lender Parties has been fully paid, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to include in its claim the amount of all sums paid by such Canadian Loan Guarantor to the Administrative Agent under this Canadian Guarantee and to prove and rank for and receive dividends in respect of such claim, any and all rights to prove and rank for such sums paid for by such Canadian Loan Guarantor and receive the full amount of all dividends in respect thereto are hereby assigned and transferred to the Administrative Agent by such Canadian Loan Guarantor.

Any account settled or stated by or between the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties and any Canadian Borrower, or, if any such account has not been so settled or stated immediately before demand for payment under this Canadian Guarantee, any account stated by the Administrative Agent, shall be accepted by each Canadian Loan Guarantor as conclusive evidence of the amount which at the date of the account so settled or stated is due by such Canadian Borrower to the Administrative Agent or remains unpaid by such Canadian Borrower to the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties.

10.

Each Canadian Loan Guarantor shall make payment to the Administrative Agent of the amount of its liability to the Administrative Agent forthwith after demand therefor is made in writing and such demand shall be deemed to have been effectually made when an envelope containing such demand addressed to such Canadian Loan Guarantor at its address last known to the Administrative Agent, is deposited, postage prepaid, in the mail. All payments hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the office of the Administrative Agent as provided in the Credit Agreement.

11.

Any and all payments by any Canadian Loan Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties under this Canadian Guarantee or the Credit Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for any taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings of whatever kind or nature (the "Taxes") unless such Canadian Loan Guarantor is required to withhold or deduct taxes in which case paragraphs 12 and 13 shall apply.

12.

Each Canadian Loan Guarantor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties for the full amount of Taxes (including any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this paragraph) paid by the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties with respect to payments made by such Canadian Loan Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties under this Canadian Guarantee, and any liability (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto (but excluding for greater certainty, net income taxes payable by the Administrative Agent and/or Canadian Lender Parties directly). Payment under this indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date the Administrative Agent makes written demand therefor. The Administrative Agent agrees, within a reasonable time after receiving a written request from such Canadian Loan Guarantor, to provide such Canadian Loan Guarantor with such certificates as are reasonably required, and take such other actions as are reasonably necessary (so long as such actions do not have a negative effect on the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties), to claim such exemptions as the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties may be entitled to claim in respect of all or a portion of any Taxes which are otherwise required to be paid or deducted or withheld hereunder.


13.	If any Canadian Loan Guarantor shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties, then:


(a)	the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this paragraph) the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made;


(b)	such Canadian Loan Guarantor shall make such deductions and withholdings;


(c)	such Canadian Loan Guarantor shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law; and


(d)	such Canadian Loan Guarantor shall also pay to the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties, at the time interest is paid, all additional amounts (without duplication) which the Administrative Agent specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield the Administrative Agent and/or the Canadian Lender Parties would have received if such Taxes had not been imposed.


14.	Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment by any Canadian Loan Guarantor of Taxes, such Canadian Loan Guarantor shall furnish the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

15.

If any provision of this Canadian Guarantee is determined in any proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or to be wholly or partly unenforceable, that provision shall for the purposes of such proceeding, be severed from this Canadian Guarantee at the Administrative Agent's option and shall be treated as not forming a part hereof and all the remaining provisions of this Canadian Guarantee shall remain in full force and be unaffected thereby.

16.

This Canadian Guarantee shall not be subject to or affected by any promise or condition affecting or limiting the liability of any Canadian Loan Guarantor except as expressly set forth herein and no statement, representation, agreement or promise on the part of the Administrative Agent or any officer, employee or agent thereof, unless contained herein, forms any part of this contract or has induced the making thereof or shall be deemed in any way to affect the liability of any Canadian Loan Guarantor hereunder.


17.	There are no representations, collateral agreements or conditions with respect to this Canadian Guarantee and agreement affecting the liability of any Canadian Loan Guarantor hereunder other than contained herein.


18.	This Canadian Guarantee and agreement shall extend to and enure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lender Parties and its and their successors and assigns, and shall extend to and be binding upon each Canadian Loan Guarantor and its successors and permitted assigns.


19.	It is not necessary for the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lender Parties to inquire into the powers of the Canadian Borrowers or any Canadian Loan Guarantor or of the officers, directors, partners, or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

20.

The Administrative Agent may, without notice to a Canadian Loan Guarantor and without affecting such Canadian Loan Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, assign the indebtedness and this Canadian Guarantee, in whole or in part. Each Canadian Loan Guarantor agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lender Parties may disclose to any assignee or purchaser, or any prospective assignee or purchaser, of all or part of the indebtedness any and all information in the Administrative Agent or a Canadian Lender Party's possession concerning such Canadian Loan Guarantor, this Canadian Guarantee, and any security for this Canadian Guarantee.

21.

If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court or for the purpose of determining, pursuant to the obligations of any Canadian Loan Guarantor, the amounts owing hereunder it is necessary to convert an amount due hereunder in the currency in which it is due (the "Original Currency") into another currency (the "Second Currency"), the rate of exchange applied shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Administrative Agent could purchase, in the New York foreign exchange market, the Original Currency with the Second Currency on the date two (2) Business Days preceding that on which judgment is given or any other payment is due hereunder. Each Canadian Loan Guarantor agrees that its obligation in respect of any Original Currency due from it to the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment or payment in such other currency, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following the date the Administrative Agent receives payment of any sum so adjudged or owing to be due hereunder in the Second Currency the Administrative Agent may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase, in the New York foreign exchange market the Original Currency with the amount of the Second Currency so paid; and if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased or could have been so purchased is less than the amount originally due in the Original Currency, each Canadian Loan Guarantor agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such payment or judgment to indemnify the Administrative Agent against such loss. The term "rate of exchange" in this paragraph 21 means the spot rate at which the Administrative Agent, in accordance with normal practices is able, on the relevant date, to purchase the Original Currency with the Second Currency and includes any premium and costs of exchange payable in connection with such purchase.

22.

If a Canadian Loan Guarantor is a partnership, this Canadian Guarantee shall extend to the person, persons and corporations for the time being and from time to time carrying on the business now being carried on by such Canadian Loan Guarantor notwithstanding any change or changes in the name or membership of the partnership or the incorporation of a company for the purpose of acquiring the business of the partnership and where a Canadian Loan Guarantor is a corporation, this Canadian Guarantee shall extend to any amalgamated or new company formed to take over the business of such Canadian Loan Guarantor and any reorganization thereof, whether the new company is the same or different in its objects, character and constitution.


23.	Each Canadian Loan Guarantor agrees to pay all reasonable legal fees, including allocated costs of the Administrative Agent's in-house counsel, and all other costs and expenses which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lender Parties in the enforcement of this Canadian Guarantee.


24.	All words used herein in the plural shall be deemed to have been used in the singular where the context and construction so require.


25.	This Canadian Guarantee shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable therein.


26.	Each Canadian Loan Guarantor acknowledges receipt of an executed copy of this Canadian Guarantee.

27.

This Canadian Guarantee may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one agreement, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Canadian Guarantee by signing any such counterpart. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Canadian Guarantee by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Canadian Guarantee.

28.

The liability of each Canadian Loan Guarantor shall be absolute and conditional and shall not be discharged, diminished or in any way affected by any circumstance which might otherwise constitute in whole or in part (i) a defence available to such Canadian Loan Guarantor, any other Canadian Loan Guarantor or any Canadian Borrower or (ii) the discharge of any other Canadian Loan Guarantor, any Canadian Borrower or any other Person in respect of the obligations hereunder.


29.	Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Canadian Guarantee or any of the other Loan Documents, in no event shall any Canadian Loan Guarantor or Dutch Loan Guarantor be liable for any obligation of any U.S. Loan Party or CFC Subsidiary Holding Company.


30.	The First Restated Guarantee, as amended and restated by this Canadian Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect as amended and restated hereby and is hereby ratified and confirmed by each of the undersigned.


31.	Each Canadian Loan Guarantor acknowledges communication of the terms of the Credit Agreement and of all the provisions therein contained and consents to and approves of its contents.

The Original Credit Agreement was amended and restated in its entirety pursuant to the amended and restated credit agreement dated as of December 12, 2012 by and among, among others, the Administrative Agent, the other Lender Parties (as defined in the hereinafter defined First ARCA), and the Loan Parties (as defined in the hereinafter defined First ARCA) (the “First ARCA”).

In connection with the First ARCA, each of the Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantors (as defined in the hereinafter defined First Restated Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee), entered into an amended and restated Canadian cross-border guarantee (the "First Restated Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee") which amended and restated in its entirety its Original Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee pursuant to the terms thereof.


F.	In connection with the Credit Agreement, each of the undersigned, as a guarantor of the Secured Obligations, is required to enter into this second amended and restated Canadian cross-border guarantee (the “Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee”) and has agreed to amend and restate in its entirety, its First Restated Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee pursuant to the terms hereof.

NOW ACCORDINGLY each of the undersigned, jointly and severally, hereby agree as follows:

For valuable consideration, each of the signatories hereto (each, a "Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor" and collectively, the "Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantors") hereby unconditionally guarantees and promises to pay, jointly and severally, to JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as administrative agent (the "Administrative Agent") for itself and the Lender Parties, or order, on demand, any and all indebtedness of WESCO Distribution Canada LP, WDCC Enterprises, Inc., EECOL Electric ULC, Hazmasters Inc. and Hazmasters Quebec Inc. (collectively, the "Canadian Borrowers"), and WESCO Distribution, Inc., WESCO Equity Corporation, WESCO Integrated Supply, Inc., WESCO Nevada, Ltd., Communications Supply Corporation, Calvert Wire & Cable Corporation, Liberty Wire & Cable, Inc., TVC Communications, L.L.C., Carlton-Bates Company, Conney Safety Products, LLC, Hi-Line Utility Supply Company, LLC and Hill Country Electric Supply, L.P. (collectively, the “US Borrowers”, and collectively with the Canadian Borrowers and all other borrowers who are or may from time to time be party to the Credit Agreement, the “Borrowers”) to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties including pursuant to the second amended and restated credit agreement dated as of September 24, 2015 by and among, amongst others, the Administrative Agent, the Lender Parties and the Borrowers, as the same may be amended, supplemented, revised, restated or replaced from time to time (the "Credit Agreement"). The word "indebtedness" is used herein in its most comprehensive sense and includes any and all advances, debts, obligations and liabilities of the Borrowers, heretofore, now, or hereafter made, incurred or created, whether voluntary or involuntary and however arising, whether direct or acquired by the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties by assignment or succession, whether due or not due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined, and whether any Borrower may be liable individually or jointly with others, or whether recovery upon such indebtedness may be or hereafter become barred by any statute of limitations, or whether such indebtedness may be or hereafter become otherwise unenforceable.

The liability of each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor under this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee shall be unlimited. Regardless of whether or not any proposed guarantor or any other person or persons has or have executed or shall execute this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee or is or are or shall become in any other way responsible to the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties for the indebtedness or any part thereof whether under this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee or otherwise shall cease to be so liable, this shall be a continuing Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee relating to any indebtedness, including that arising under successive transactions which shall either continue the indebtedness or from time to time renew it after it has been satisfied and shall secure the ultimate repayment of all monies owing from the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties and shall be binding as a continuing security on each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor. Any payment by a Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor shall not reduce the maximum obligation of such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor hereunder.

The obligations hereunder are independent of the obligations of the Borrowers and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor whether action is brought against the Borrowers or whether the Borrowers be joined in any such action or actions; and each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor waives the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability.


4.	Each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor authorizes the Administrative Agent, without notice or demand and without affecting its liability hereunder, from time to time, to:


(e)	renew, compromise, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or otherwise change the terms of the indebtedness or any part thereof, including increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon;


(f)	receive and hold security for the payment of this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee or the indebtedness guaranteed, and exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any such security;


(g)	apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Administrative Agent in its discretion may determine; and


(h)	release or substitute any guarantors.


5.	Each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor waives any right to require the Administrative Agent or any of the Lender Parties to:


(d)	proceed against any Borrower;


(e)	proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower or any other person; or


(f)	pursue any other remedy in the Administrative Agent or the Lender Parties' power whatsoever.

Each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Borrowers, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the Borrowers, or any claim that such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Borrowers, each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor waives any right of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification, and contribution (contractual, statutory or otherwise), arising from the existence or performance of this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee and each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor waives any right to enforce any remedy which the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties now have or may hereafter have against the Borrowers, and waives any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter held by the Administrative Agent or the Lender Parties. The Administrative Agent may foreclose, either by judicial foreclosure or by exercise of power of sale, or realize any deed of trust or other security securing the indebtedness, and, even though the foreclosure or other realization may destroy or diminish any Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor’s rights against the Borrowers or may result in security being sold at an under value, such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor shall be liable to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties for any part of the indebtedness remaining unpaid after the foreclosure or other realization. Each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor waives all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonour, and notices of acceptance of this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee and of the existence, creation, or incurring of new or additional indebtedness.

Each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it shall have the sole responsibility for obtaining from the Borrowers such information concerning the Borrowers' financial conditions or business operations as such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor may require, and that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lender Parties have any duty at any time to disclose to such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor any information relating to the business operations or financial conditions of any Borrower.

Any obligations of a Borrower to a Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor, now or hereafter existing, including but not limited to any obligations to such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor as subrogee of the Administrative Agent or the Lender Parties or resulting from such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor’s performance under this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee, are hereby assigned to the Administrative Agent and postponed and subordinated to the indebtedness. Any such obligations of the Borrowers to a Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor received by such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor shall be received in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties and the proceeds thereof shall forthwith be paid over to the Administrative Agent on account of the indebtedness of the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor under the provisions of this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee. This assignment and postponement is independent of and severable from this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee and shall remain in full force and effect whether or not a Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor is liable for any amount under this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee.

Where any Borrower becomes bankrupt or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or if any circumstances arise necessitating the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties to file a claim against such Borrower and/or to value its securities, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to place such valuation on its securities as the Administrative Agent may in its absolute discretion see fit and the filing of such claim and the valuing of securities shall not in any way prejudice or restrict the claim of the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties against any Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor and in no way discharges such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor from its liability hereunder to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties, either in whole or in part and until all indebtedness of the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties has been fully paid, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to include in its claim the amount of all sums paid by such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor to the Administrative Agent under this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee and to prove and rank for and receive dividends in respect of such claim, any and all rights to prove and rank for such sums paid for by such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor and receive the full amount of all dividends in respect thereto are hereby assigned and transferred to the Administrative Agent by such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor.

Any account settled or stated by or between the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties and any Borrower, or, if any such account has not been so settled or stated immediately before demand for payment under this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee, any account stated by the Administrative Agent, shall be accepted by each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor as conclusive evidence of the amount which at the date of the account so settled or stated is due by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent or remains unpaid by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties.

10.

Each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor shall make payment to the Administrative Agent of the amount of its liability to the Administrative Agent forthwith after demand therefor is made in writing and such demand shall be deemed to have been effectually made when an envelope containing such demand addressed to such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor at its address last known to the Administrative Agent, is deposited, postage prepaid, in the mail. All payments hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the office of the Administrative Agent as provided in the Credit Agreement.

11.

Any and all payments by any Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties under this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee or the Credit Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for any taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings of whatever kind or nature (the "Taxes") unless such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor is required to withhold or deduct taxes in which case paragraphs 12 and 13 shall apply.

12.

Each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties for the full amount of Taxes (including any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this paragraph) paid by the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties with respect to payments made by such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties under this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee, and any liability (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto (but excluding for greater certainty, net income taxes payable by the Administrative Agent and/or Lender Parties directly). Payment under this indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date the Administrative Agent makes written demand therefor. The Administrative Agent agrees, within a reasonable time after receiving a written request from such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor, to provide such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor with such certificates as are reasonably required, and take such other actions as are reasonably necessary (so long as such actions do not have a negative effect on the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties), to claim such exemptions as the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties may be entitled to claim in respect of all or a portion of any Taxes which are otherwise required to be paid or deducted or withheld hereunder.


13.	If any Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties, then:


(e)	the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this paragraph) the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made;


(f)	such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor shall make such deductions and withholdings;


(g)	such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law; and


(h)	such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor shall also pay to the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties, at the time interest is paid, all additional amounts (without duplication) which the Administrative Agent specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield the Administrative Agent and/or the Lender Parties would have received if such Taxes had not been imposed.


14.	Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment by any Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor of Taxes, such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor shall furnish the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

15.

If any provision of this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee is determined in any proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or to be wholly or partly unenforceable, that provision shall for the purposes of such proceeding, be severed from this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee at the Administrative Agent's option and shall be treated as not forming a part hereof and all the remaining provisions of this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee shall remain in full force and be unaffected thereby.

16.

This Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee shall not be subject to or affected by any promise or condition affecting or limiting the liability of any Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor except as expressly set forth herein and no statement, representation, agreement or promise on the part of the Administrative Agent or any officer, employee or agent thereof, unless contained herein, forms any part of this contract or has induced the making thereof or shall be deemed in any way to affect the liability of any Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor hereunder.


17.	There are no representations, collateral agreements or conditions with respect to this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee and agreement affecting the liability of any Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor hereunder other than contained herein.


18.	This Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee and agreement shall extend to and enure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties and its and their successors and assigns, and shall extend to and be binding upon each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor and its successors and permitted assigns.


19.	It is not necessary for the Administrative Agent or the Lender Parties to inquire into the powers of the Borrowers or any Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor or of the officers, directors, partners, or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

20.

The Administrative Agent may, without notice to a Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor and without affecting such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, assign the indebtedness and this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee, in whole or in part. Each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties may disclose to any assignee or purchaser, or any prospective assignee or purchaser, of all or part of the indebtedness any and all information in the Administrative Agent or a Lender Party's possession concerning such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor, this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee, and any security for this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee.

21.

If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court or for the purpose of determining, pursuant to the obligations of any Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor, the amounts owing hereunder it is necessary to convert an amount due hereunder in the currency in which it is due (the "Original Currency") into another currency (the "Second Currency"), the rate of exchange applied shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Administrative Agent could purchase, in the New York foreign exchange market, the Original Currency with the Second Currency on the date two (2) Business Days preceding that on which judgment is given or any other payment is due hereunder. Each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor agrees that its obligation in respect of any Original Currency due from it to the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment or payment in such other currency, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following the date the Administrative Agent receives payment of any sum so adjudged or owing to be due hereunder in the Second Currency the Administrative Agent may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase, in the New York foreign exchange market the Original Currency with the amount of the Second Currency so paid; and if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased or could have been so purchased is less than the amount originally due in the Original Currency, each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such payment or judgment to indemnify the Administrative Agent against such loss. The term "rate of exchange" in this paragraph 21 means the spot rate at which the Administrative Agent, in accordance with normal practices is able, on the relevant date, to purchase the Original Currency with the Second Currency and includes any premium and costs of exchange payable in connection with such purchase.

22.

If a Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor is a partnership, this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee shall extend to the person, persons and corporations for the time being and from time to time carrying on the business now being carried on by such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor notwithstanding any change or changes in the name or membership of the partnership or the incorporation of a company for the purpose of acquiring the business of the partnership and where a Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor is a corporation, this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee shall extend to any amalgamated or new company formed to take over the business of such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor and any reorganization thereof, whether the new company is the same or different in its objects, character and constitution.


23.	Each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor agrees to pay all reasonable legal fees, including allocated costs of the Administrative Agent's in-house counsel, and all other costs and expenses which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Lender Parties in the enforcement of this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee.


24.	All words used herein in the plural shall be deemed to have been used in the singular where the context and construction so require.


25.	This Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable therein.


26.	Each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor acknowledges receipt of an executed copy of this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee.

27.

This Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one agreement, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee by signing any such counterpart. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee.

28.

The liability of each Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor shall be absolute and conditional and shall not be discharged, diminished or in any way affected by any circumstance which might otherwise constitute in whole or in part (i) a defence available to such Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor, any other Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor or any Borrower or (ii) the discharge of any other Canadian Cross-Border Loan Guarantor, any Borrower or any other Person in respect of the obligations hereunder.


29.	The First Restated Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee, as amended and restated by this Canadian Cross-Border Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect as amended and restated hereby and is hereby ratified and confirmed by each of the undersigned.

Such Grantor is , as of the date hereof or as of the last Update Date, as applicable, the direct, sole beneficial owner and sole holder of record of the Pledged Collateral listed on Exhibits E and F as being owned by it, free and clear of any Liens, except for (i) the security interest granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders hereunder, (ii) the security interest granted to the Term Loan Agent for the benefit of the Term Loan Lenders pursuant to the Term Loan Security Documents, and (iii) Liens permitted by Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement. Such Grantor further represents and warrants that (i) all Pledged Collateral owned by it constituting an Equity Interest (other than Equity Interests of any Excluded Subsidiary) has been (to the extent such concepts are relevant with respect to such Pledged Collateral) duly authorized, validly issued, are fully paid and, apart from Pledged ULC Shares, non‑assessable, (ii) with respect to any certificates delivered to the Administrative Agent representing an Equity Interest (or until the Term Loan Obligation Payment Date, to the Term Loan Agent in accordance with the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement in the case of any Pledged Collateral constituting Term Loan Priority Collateral), either such certificates are Securities as defined in the PPSA as a result of actions by the issuer or otherwise, or, if such certificates are not Securities, such Grantor has so informed the Administrative Agent so that the Administrative Agent may take steps to perfect its security interest therein as a General Intangible, (iii) subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, all such Pledged Collateral held by a securities intermediary (other than Collateral consisting of Investment Property held in an Excluded Account) is covered by a control agreement among such Grantor, the securities intermediary and the Administrative Agent pursuant to which the Administrative Agent has Control and (iv) subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, all Pledged Collateral which represents Indebtedness owed to such Grantor has been duly authorized, authenticated or issued and delivered by the issuer of such Indebtedness, to the knowledge of the Grantors, is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such issuer (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and, as of the date hereof, such issuer is not in default thereunder.

(b)In addition, (i) none of the Pledged Collateral owned by such Grantor has been issued or transferred in violation of the securities registration, securities disclosure or similar laws of any jurisdiction to which such issuance or transfer may be subject, (ii) no options, warrants, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever (A) exist relating to such Pledged Collateral or (B) obligate the issuer of any Equity Interest included in the Pledged Collateral to issue additional Equity Interests, and (iii) no consent, approval, authorization, or other action by, and no giving of notice, filing with, any governmental authority or any other Person is required for the pledge by such Grantor of such Pledged Collateral pursuant to this Canadian Security Agreement or for the execution, delivery and performance of this Canadian Security Agreement by such Grantor, or, except in the case of the Pledged ULC Shares, for the exercise by the Administrative Agent of the voting or other rights provided for in this Canadian Security Agreement or for the remedies in respect of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to this Canadian Security Agreement, except (i) as may be required in connection with such disposition by laws affecting the offering and sale of securities generally, or (ii) until the Term Loan Obligation Payment Date, in accordance with the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement in the case of any such Pledged Collateral constituting Term Loan Priority Collateral.

(c)[intentionally omitted].

(d)Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in this Canadian Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other document or agreement among all or some of the parties hereto, with regard to any Collateral which is shares or membership interests in an unlimited company incorporated or otherwise formed under the laws of the Province of Nova Scotia (the “Pledged ULC Shares”), any Grantor who has granted a security interest in Pledged ULC Shares or any Grantor that is as of the date of this Canadian Security Agreement the sole registered and beneficial owner of all Pledged ULC Shares will remain so until such time as such Pledged ULC Shares are fully and effectively transferred into the name of the Administrative Agent or any other Person on the books and records of such Nova Scotia unlimited company (“ULC”). Nothing in this Canadian Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other document or agreement delivered among all or some of the parties hereto is intended to or shall constitute the Administrative Agent or any Person other than such Grantor to be a member or shareholder of any ULC for the purposes of the Companies Act (Nova Scotia) until such time as written notice is given to such Grantor and all further steps are taken so as to register the Administrative Agent or other Person as holder of the Pledged ULC Shares. The granting of the pledge and security interest pursuant to this Canadian Security Agreement does not make the Administrative Agent a successor to such Grantor as a member or shareholder of any ULC, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its respective successors or assigns hereunder shall be deemed to become a member or shareholder of any ULC by accepting this Canadian Security Agreement or exercising any right granted herein unless and until such time, if any, when the Administrative Agent or any successor or assign expressly becomes a registered member or shareholder of any ULC. Such Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain for its own account any dividends or other distributions if any, in respect of the Collateral relating to any such Pledged ULC Shares (except insofar as such Grantor has granted a security interest in such dividend on or other distribution) that is not otherwise permitted under this Canadian Security Agreement or the Credit Agreement and shall have the right to vote such Pledged ULC Shares and to control the direction, management and policies of the ULC issuing such Pledged ULC Shares to the same extent as such Grantor would if such Pledged ULC Shares were not pledged to the Administrative Agent or to any other Person pursuant hereto. To the extent any provision hereof would have the effect of constituting the Administrative Agent to be a member or shareholder of any ULC prior to such time that written notice is delivered to such Grantor, such provision shall be severed herefrom and ineffective with respect to the relevant Pledged ULC Shares without otherwise invalidating or rendering unenforceable this Canadian Security Agreement or invalidating or rendering unenforceable such provision insofar as it relates to Collateral other than Pledged ULC Shares. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (except to the extent, if any, that the Administrative Agent or any of its successors or assigns hereafter expressly becomes a registered member or shareholder of any ULC), neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its respective successors or assigns shall be deemed to have assumed or otherwise become liable for any debts or obligations of any ULC. Except upon the exercise by the Administrative Agent or other Persons of rights to sell or otherwise dispose of Pledged ULC Shares or other remedies following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Grantor shall not cause or permit, or enable any ULC in which it holds Pledged ULC Shares to cause or permit, the Administrative Agent to: (i) be registered as member or shareholder of such ULC; (ii) have any notation entered in its favour in the share register of such ULC; (iii) be held out as member or shareholder of such ULC; (iv) receive, directly or indirectly, any dividends, property or other distributions from such ULC by reason of the Administrative Agent or other Person holding a security interest in the Pledged ULC Shares; or (v) act as a member or shareholder of such ULC, or exercise any rights of a member or shareholder of such ULC, including the right to attend a meeting of such ULC or vote the shares of such ULC.

4.5. Uncertificated Pledged Collateral. Subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, such Grantor will permit the Administrative Agent from time to time to cause the appropriate issuers (and, if held with a securities intermediary, such securities intermediary) of uncertificated securities or other types of Pledged Collateral owned by it not represented by certificates to mark their books and records with the numbers and face amounts of all such uncertificated securities or other types of Pledged Collateral not represented by certificates and all rollovers and replacements therefor to reflect the Lien of the Administrative Agent granted pursuant to this Canadian Security Agreement. With respect to any Pledged Collateral owned by it, such Grantor will take any necessary actions requested by the Administrative Agent to cause (a) the issuers of uncertificated securities which are Pledged Collateral and (b) any securities intermediary which is the holder of any such Pledged Collateral, to cause the Administrative Agent to have and retain Control over such Pledged Collateral (or until the Term Loan Obligation Payment Date, to cause the Term Loan Agent to have and retain Control over such Pledged Collateral, in accordance with the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement in the case of any Pledged Collateral constituting Term Loan Priority Collateral). Without limiting the foregoing, such Grantor will, with respect to any such Pledged Collateral held with a securities intermediary, cause such securities intermediary to enter into a Control Agreement with the Administrative Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, giving the Administrative Agent Control (or until the Term Loan Obligation Payment Date, to enter into a Control Agreement with the Term Loan Agent in accordance with the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement in the case of any Pledged Collateral constituting Term Loan Priority Collateral).To the extent that any issuer of uncertificated securities that constitute Pledged Collateral shall issue certificates for such Pledged Collateral, such Grantor will promptly notify the Administrative Agent and comply with the provisions of Section 4.4 with respect to such Pledged Collateral.

ARTICLE V

EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

5.1. [intentionally omitted].


5.2.	Remedies.

(i)subject to Section 3.13(d) with respect to Pledged ULC Shares, those rights and remedies provided in this Canadian Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document; provided that, this Section 5.2(a) shall not be understood to limit any rights or remedies available to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders prior to an Event of Default;

(ii)those rights and remedies available to a secured party under the PPSA (whether or not the PPSA applies to the affected Collateral) or under any other applicable law (including, without limitation, any law governing the exercise of a bank's right of setoff or bankers' lien) when a debtor is in default under a security agreement;

(c)The Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders, may comply with any applicable provincial or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

(d)The Administrative Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders, the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right of equity redemption, which equity redemption the Grantor hereby expressly releases.

(e)Until the Administrative Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the Administrative Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment.

(g)Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent nor the Canadian Lenders shall be required to (i) make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of its rights or remedies against, any Grantor, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Canadian Secured Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of its rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof, (ii) marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Canadian Secured Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order, or (iii) effect a public sale of any Collateral.

Each Grantor also acknowledges that any private sale may result in prices and other terms less favourable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such sale being private. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit any Grantor or the issuer of the Pledged Collateral to register such securities for public sale under applicable securities laws, even if the applicable Grantor and the issuer would agree to do so.

(c)prepare and file, or cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to prepare and file, with the applicable government agency, registration statements, a prospectus and such other documentation in connection with the Pledged Collateral as the Administrative Agent may request, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and furnish to the Administrative Agent, or cause an issuer of Pledged Collateral to furnish to the Administrative Agent, any information regarding the Pledged Collateral in such detail as the Administrative Agent may reasonably specify;

(e)at its own expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the independent certified public accountants then engaged by each Grantor to prepare and deliver to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent and each Canadian Lender, at any time, and from time to time, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request, the following reports with respect to the applicable Grantor: (i) a reconciliation of all Accounts; (ii) an aging of all Accounts; (iii) trial balances; and (iv) a test verification of such Accounts.

(a) Subject to Section 6.2(b) below and subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, each Grantor irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time in the Permitted Discretion of the Administrative Agent and appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney in fact (i) to execute on behalf of such Grantor as debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in the Administrative Agent's sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Administrative Agent's security interest in the Collateral, (ii) to endorse and collect any cash proceeds of the Collateral, (iii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Canadian Security Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Collateral as a financing statement and to file any other financing statement or amendment of a financing statement (which does not add new collateral or add a debtor) in such offices as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Administrative Agent's security interest in the Collateral, (iv) to contact and enter into one or more agreements with the issuers of uncertificated securities which are Pledged Collateral or with securities intermediaries holding Pledged Collateral as may be necessary or advisable to give the Administrative Agent Control over such Pledged Collateral, (v) to apply the proceeds of any Collateral received by the Administrative Agent to the Canadian Secured Obligations as provided in Section 7.4, (vi) to discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees or Liens on the Collateral (except for (A) taxes, assessments, charges or fees which are permitted to be past due in accordance with the Credit Agreement, or (B) such Liens that are permitted under Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement), (vii) to contact Account Debtors for any reason, (viii) to demand payment or enforce payment of the Receivables in the name of the Administrative Agent or such Grantor and to endorse any and all checks, drafts, and other instruments for the payment of money relating to the Receivables, (ix) to sign such Grantor's name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to the Receivables, drafts against any Account Debtor of the Grantor, assignments and verifications of Receivables, (x) to exercise all of such Grantor's rights and remedies with respect to the collection of the Receivables and any other Collateral, (xi) to settle, adjust, compromise, extend or renew the Receivables, (xii) to settle, adjust or compromise any legal proceedings brought to collect Receivables, (xiii) to prepare, file and sign such Grantor's name on a proof of claim in bankruptcy or similar document against any Account Debtor of such Grantor, (xiv) to prepare, file and sign such Grantor's name on any notice of Lien, assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document in connection with the Receivables, (xv) to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to such Grantor to such address as the Administrative Agent may designate and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to such Grantor, and (xvi) to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out this Canadian Security Agreement; and such Grantor agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent on demand for any payment made or any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expense incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that, this authorization shall not relieve such Grantor of any of its obligations under this Canadian Security Agreement or under the Credit Agreement.

(b) All acts of said attorney or designee are hereby ratified and approved. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders, under this Section 6.2 are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender to exercise any such powers. The Administrative Agent agrees that, (i) except for the powers granted in Sections 6.2(a)(i)-(vi), the Administrative Agent shall not exercise any power or authority granted to it unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall not exercise any power or authority granted to it under Sections 6.2(a)(ii) or 6.2(a)(v) unless a Cash Dominion Period shall be in effect and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall not exercise any power of attorney granted to it under Section 6.2(a) in a manner that would violate the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement.

6.4. Nature of Appointment; Limitation of Duty. THE APPOINTMENT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT WITH RESPECT TO EACH GRANTOR IN THIS ARTICLE VI IS COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST AND SHALL BE IRREVOCABLE UNTIL THE DATE ON WHICH THIS CANADIAN SECURITY AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 8.16 OR SUCH GRANTOR IS RELEASED FROM ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 8.16. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED HEREIN, NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, NOR ANY CANADIAN LENDER, NOR ANY OF THEIR AFFILIATES, NOR ANY OF THEIR OR THEIR AFFILIATES' RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL HAVE ANY DUTY TO EXERCISE ANY RIGHT OR POWER GRANTED HEREUNDER OR OTHERWISE OR TO PRESERVE THE SAME AND SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY FAILURE TO DO SO OR FOR ANY DELAY IN DOING SO, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT ARISING OUT OF ITS BAD FAITH, OWN BAD FAITH, GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION; PROVIDED THAT, IN NO EVENT SHALL THEY BE LIABLE FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

ARTICLE VII

COLLECTION AND APPLICATION OF COLLATERAL PROCEEDS; DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS

7.1. Collection of Receivables. As of the date of this Canadian Security Agreement, all Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts established by the Grantors with any banking institution, securities broker, securities intermediary or other financial institution are listed on Exhibit B hereto. Each Grantor has and will continue to direct its Account Debtors to remit cash, checks, electronic funds transfers and other similar payments relating to or constituting payments made in respect of Receivables directly to such accounts. If any Grantor should refuse or neglect to notify any Account Debtor to forward payments directly to a Deposit Account listed on Exhibit B hereto after notice from the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to make such notification directly to such Account Debtor.

7.2. Application of Funds During a Cash Dominion Period. At all times during a Cash Dominion Period, the Grantors shall comply and shall cause the Canadian Cash Management Bank to comply with the provisions of Section 5.12(d) of the Credit Agreement. At all times during a Cash Dominion Period, the Administrative Agent shall have the right (i) to declare that full cash dominion is in effect, (ii) to give a notice of sole control or other instruction under any Control Agreement, (iii) to notify each banking institution, securities broker or securities intermediary (including the Canadian Cash Management Bank) at which any Grantor maintains any Deposit Account or Securities Accounts (in each case, other than Excluded Accounts), that (A) the Administrative Agent has taken full dominion and control over all Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts (in each case, other than Excluded Accounts) and all funds from time to time on deposit therein, (B) such banking institutions, securities brokers and securities intermediaries shall follow all instructions given by the Administrative Agent with respect to such Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts, and (C) such banking institutions shall remit directly to the Canadian Collection Account (or to such other account as the Administrative Agent may direct), on a daily basis (or on such other basis as the Administrative Agent shall direct) all funds from time to time deposited into such Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts, and (iv) to automatically apply, on a daily basis, all funds remitted to the Canadian Collection Account (or to such other account as the Administrative Agent shall so direct), from all such Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts, and all other proceeds of the Collateral, to repay the Loans and other Obligations in accordance with Sections 2.11 and 2.18 of the Credit Agreement.

7.3. Covenant Regarding New Deposit Accounts. Before opening or replacing any Deposit Account or Securities Account (other than an Excluded Account), each Grantor shall cause each bank or financial institution in which it seeks to open (i) a Deposit Account or Securities Account (other than an Excluded Account) to enter into a Control Agreement with the Administrative Agent in order to give the Administrative Agent Control of such Deposit Account or Securities Account. In the case of any Deposit Account or Securities Account maintained with any Lender, the terms of such letter shall be subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement regarding setoffs.

7.4. Application of Proceeds; Deficiency. In the case of any sale or other disposition of Collateral by the Administrative Agent in the exercise of its remedies provided herein or in any other Loan Document, the proceeds of such sale shall be applied (and allocated) by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement. In the event that the proceeds from any sale or other disposition of Collateral are insufficient to pay all Canadian Secured Obligations in full, the Grantors shall remain liable for any deficiency, including any attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by the Agents or any Canadian Lender to collect such deficiency.

ARTICLE VIII

GENERAL PROVISIONS

8.1. Waivers. Each Grantor hereby waives notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be made. To the extent such notice may not be waived under applicable law, any notice made shall be deemed reasonable if sent to the Grantors, addressed as set forth in Article IX, at least ten (10) days prior to (i) the date of any such public sale or (ii) the time after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral, except to the extent arising out of the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Canadian Lender as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against the Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender, any valuation, stay, appraisal, extension, moratorium, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Canadian Security Agreement, or otherwise. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Canadian Security Agreement or any Collateral.

8.2. Limitation on Administrative Agent's and Canadian Lenders’ Duty with Respect to the Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. The Administrative Agent and each Canadian Lender shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Administrative Agent or such Canadian Lender, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Administrative Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is commercially reasonable for the Administrative Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Administrative Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as such Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Administrative Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Administrative Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Administrative Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 8.2 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Administrative Agent would be commercially reasonable in the Administrative Agent's exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 8.2. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 8.2 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Administrative Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Canadian Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 8.2.

8.3. Compromises and Collection of Collateral. The Grantors and the Administrative Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims, defenses and other claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and probability of success in litigating a disputed Receivable may exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent may, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, at any time and from time to time, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Administrative Agent shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Administrative Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action.

8.4. Secured Party Performance of Debtor Obligations. Without having any obligation to do so, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent may perform or pay any obligation which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay in this Canadian Security Agreement and the Grantors shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any amounts paid by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.4. The Grantors’ obligation to reimburse the Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be a Canadian Secured Obligation payable on demand.

8.5. Specific Performance of Certain Covenants. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 4.1(d), 4.1(e), 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.9, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15, 5.3, or 8.7 or in Article VII will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders, that the Administrative Agent and Canadian Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breaches and therefore agrees, without limiting the right of the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lenders to seek and obtain specific performance of other obligations of the Grantors contained in this Canadian Security Agreement, that, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, the covenants of the Grantors contained in the Sections referred to in this Section 8.5 shall be specifically enforceable against the Grantors.

8.6. Dispositions Not Authorized. No Grantor is authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral except as set forth in Section 4.1(d) and notwithstanding any course of dealing between any Grantor and the Administrative Agent or other conduct of the Administrative Agent, no authorization to sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral (except as set forth in Section 4.1(d) or as otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement) shall be binding upon the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lenders unless such authorization is in writing signed by the Administrative Agent with the consent or at the direction of the Required Secured Parties.

8.7. No Waiver; Amendments; Cumulative Remedies. No delay or omission of the Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender to exercise any right or remedy granted under this Canadian Security Agreement shall impair such right or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of this Canadian Security Agreement whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Administrative Agent with the concurrence or at the direction of the Lenders required under Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All rights and remedies contained in this Canadian Security Agreement or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders until the termination of this Canadian Security Agreement in accordance with Section 8.16.

8.8. Limitation by Law; Severability of Provisions. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Canadian Security Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Canadian Security Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Canadian Security Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded or registered, in whole or in part. Any provision in this Canadian Security Agreement that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of this Canadian Security Agreement are declared to be severable.

8.9. Reinstatement. This Canadian Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Canadian Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Canadian Secured Obligations all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Canadian Secured Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of the payment so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned and shall be reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

8.10. Benefit of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Canadian Security Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Grantors, the Agents and the Canadian Lenders and their respective successors and assigns (including all persons who become bound as a debtor to this Canadian Security Agreement), except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Canadian Security Agreement or any interest herein, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. No sales of participations, assignments, transfers, or other dispositions of any agreement governing the Canadian Secured Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders, hereunder.

8.11. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the Grantors contained in this Canadian Security Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Canadian Security Agreement.

8.12. Taxes and Expenses. The Grantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any amounts due by a Loan Party under Section 2.17 and Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement.

8.13. Headings. The title of and section headings in this Canadian Security Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of this Canadian Security Agreement.

8.14. Other Pledge Agreements. The parties acknowledge and agree that certain of the Equity Interests constituting Pledged Collateral under this Canadian Security Agreement (the “Applicable Equity Interests”) may also be pledged to the Administrative Agent under a pledge agreement governed by the laws of the State of New York or the Netherlands (collectively, the “Foreign Pledge Agreements” and each individually, a “Foreign Pledge Agreement”). If, in connection with any exercise of remedies by the Administrative Agent under any Foreign Pledge Agreement, a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New York or the Netherlands, as applicable, determines that the pledge of the Applicable Equity Interests is governed by such Foreign Pledge Agreement, then such Foreign Pledge Agreement (and not this Canadian Security Agreement) shall control and shall supersede this Canadian Security Agreement, in each case, solely with respect to the pledge of such Applicable Equity Interests.

8.15. Credit Agreement; ABL-Term Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Canadian Security Agreement, the rights of the parties hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement, including the provisions thereof pertaining to the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent. In the event that any provision of this Canadian Security Agreement is in conflict with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Credit Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the rights of the parties hereunder and the priority of the Lien and security interest granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto or pursuant to any other Loan Document and the exercise of any right or remedy in respect of the Collateral by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to the provisions of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement. To the extent any provision of this Canadian Security Agreement (other than Article II hereof) is in conflict with the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement shall control. The delivery of any Collateral to the Collateral Agent (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) under the Term Loan Agreement pursuant to the Term Loan Documents shall satisfy any delivery requirement hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the extent that such delivery is consistent with the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement.

8.16. Termination.

(a) This Canadian Security Agreement shall continue in effect (notwithstanding the fact that from time to time there may be no Canadian Secured Obligations outstanding) until (i) the Credit Agreement has terminated pursuant to its express terms and (ii) all of the Canadian Secured Obligations (other than unasserted contingent obligations) have been paid in full (or with respect to any outstanding Letters of Credit, a cash deposit or a supporting Letter of Credit has been delivered to the Administrative Agent as required by the Credit Agreement) and no commitments of the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lenders which would give rise to any Canadian Secured Obligations are outstanding (notwithstanding the fact that there may be other Canadian Secured Obligations outstanding) (such date, the “Termination Date”).

(b) If (i) any Grantor ceases to be a Canadian Borrower or a Canadian Loan Guarantor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary or (ii) any property of a Grantor is sold or otherwise disposed of pursuant to a transaction permitted by the terms of the Credit Agreement or otherwise constitutes Excluded Collateral (each a “Release Transaction”), at the request of the Grantors, the Administrative Agent will (A) in connection with a Release Transaction under subclause (i) above, promptly release such Grantor from its obligations hereunder and (B) in connection with a Release Transaction under subclause (ii) above, promptly release such property from the security interest created hereunder, in each case, concurrently with the consummation of such Release Transaction. Upon such release or on or after the Termination Date, the Administrative Agent will, at the reasonable request of the Grantors and at the Grantor’s sole cost and expense, will promptly execute and deliver such releases to evidence the foregoing.

8.17. Entire Agreement. This Canadian Security Agreement embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the Grantors and the Administrative Agent relating to the Collateral and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the Grantors and the Administrative Agent relating to the Collateral.

8.18. CHOICE OF LAW. THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO AND THE LAWS OF CANADA APPLICABLE THEREIN, EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY MANDATORY PROVISIONS OF LAW AND EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE VALIDITY OR PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTERESTS HEREUNDER, OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY PARTICULAR COLLATERAL ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO.

8.19. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NON‑EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO OR OF THE FEDERAL COURTS OF CANADA THEREIN IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS CANADIAN SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY CANADIAN LENDER TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY GRANTOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY ANY GRANTOR AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY CANADIAN LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY CANADIAN LENDER INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS CANADIAN SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A COURT IN THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO.

8.20. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GRANTOR, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS CANADIAN SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED THEREUNDER.

8.21. Indemnity. The Grantors hereby agree that the provisions of Section 9.03(b) of the Credit Agreement shall apply, mutatis mutandis, with respect to any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses incurred or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of this Canadian Security Agreement, or the manufacture, purchase, acceptance, rejection, ownership, delivery, lease, possession, use, operation, condition, sale, return or other disposition of any Collateral (including, without limitation, latent and other defects, whether or not discoverable by the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Lenders or the Grantors, and any claim for Patent, Trademark or Copyright infringement), in each case, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.03(b) of the Credit Agreement.

8.22. Counterparts. This Canadian Security Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one agreement, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Canadian Security Agreement by signing any such counterpart. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Canadian Security Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Canadian Security Agreement.

(vii)	all General Intangibles;

Such Grantor is, as of the date hereof or as of the last Update Date, as applicable, the direct, sole beneficial owner and sole holder of record of the Pledged Collateral listed on Exhibits E and F as being owned by it, free and clear of any Liens, except for (i) the security interest granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder, (ii) the security interest granted to the Term Loan Agent for the benefit of the Term Loan Lenders pursuant to the Term Loan Security Documents, and (iii) Liens permitted by Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement. Such Grantor further represents and warrants that (i) all Pledged Collateral owned by it constituting an Equity Interest (other than Equity Interests of any Excluded Subsidiary) has been (to the extent such concepts are relevant with respect to such Pledged Collateral) duly authorized, validly issued, are fully paid and, apart from Pledged ULC Shares, non‑assessable, (ii) with respect to any certificates delivered to the Administrative Agent representing an Equity Interest (or until the Term Loan Obligation Payment Date, to the Term Loan Agent in accordance with the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement in the case of any Pledged Collateral constituting Term Loan Priority Collateral), either such certificates are Securities as defined in the PPSA as a result of actions by the issuer or otherwise, or, if such certificates are not Securities, such Grantor has so informed the Administrative Agent so that the Administrative Agent may take steps to perfect its security interest therein as a General Intangible, (iii) subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, all such Pledged Collateral held by a securities intermediary (other than Collateral consisting of Investment Property held in an Excluded Account) is covered by a control agreement among such Grantor, the securities intermediary and the Administrative Agent pursuant to which the Administrative Agent has Control and (iv) subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, all Pledged Collateral which represents Indebtedness owed to such Grantor has been duly authorized, authenticated or issued and delivered by the issuer of such Indebtedness, to the knowledge of the Grantors, is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such issuer (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and, as of the date hereof, such issuer is not in default thereunder.

(c)[intentionally omitted].

(d)Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other document or agreement among all or some of the parties hereto, with regard to any Collateral which is shares or membership interests in an unlimited company incorporated or otherwise formed under the laws of the Province of Nova Scotia (the “Pledged ULC Shares”), any Grantor who has granted a security interest in Pledged ULC Shares or any Grantor that is as of the date of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement the sole registered and beneficial owner of all Pledged ULC Shares will remain so until such time as such Pledged ULC Shares are fully and effectively transferred into the name of the Administrative Agent or any other Person on the books and records of such Nova Scotia unlimited company (“ULC”). Nothing in this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other document or agreement delivered among all or some of the parties hereto is intended to or shall constitute the Administrative Agent or any Person other than such Grantor to be a member or shareholder of any ULC for the purposes of the Companies Act (Nova Scotia) until such time as written notice is given to such Grantor and all further steps are taken so as to register the Administrative Agent or other Person as holder of the Pledged ULC Shares. The granting of the pledge and security interest pursuant to this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement does not make the Administrative Agent a successor to such Grantor as a member or shareholder of any ULC, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its respective successors or assigns hereunder shall be deemed to become a member or shareholder of any ULC by accepting this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement or exercising any right granted herein unless and until such time, if any, when the Administrative Agent or any successor or assign expressly becomes a registered member or shareholder of any ULC. Such Grantor shall be entitled to receive and retain for its own account any dividends or other distributions if any, in respect of the Collateral relating to any such Pledged ULC Shares (except insofar as such Grantor has granted a security interest in such dividend on or other distribution) that is not otherwise permitted under this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement or the Credit Agreement and shall have the right to vote such Pledged ULC Shares and to control the direction, management and policies of the ULC issuing such Pledged ULC Shares to the same extent as such Grantor would if such Pledged ULC Shares were not pledged to the Administrative Agent or to any other Person pursuant hereto. To the extent any provision hereof would have the effect of constituting the Administrative Agent to be a member or shareholder of any ULC prior to such time that written notice is delivered to such Grantor, such provision shall be severed herefrom and ineffective with respect to the relevant Pledged ULC Shares without otherwise invalidating or rendering unenforceable this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement or invalidating or rendering unenforceable such provision insofar as it relates to Collateral other than Pledged ULC Shares. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (except to the extent, if any, that the Administrative Agent or any of its successors or assigns hereafter expressly becomes a registered member or shareholder of any ULC), neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its respective successors or assigns shall be deemed to have assumed or otherwise become liable for any debts or obligations of any ULC. Except upon the exercise by the Administrative Agent or other Persons of rights to sell or otherwise dispose of Pledged ULC Shares or other remedies following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Grantor shall not cause or permit, or enable any ULC in which it holds Pledged ULC Shares to cause or permit, the Administrative Agent to: (i) be registered as member or shareholder of such ULC; (ii) have any notation entered in its favour in the share register of such ULC; (iii) be held out as member or shareholder of such ULC; (iv) receive, directly or indirectly, any dividends, property or other distributions from such ULC by reason of the Administrative Agent or other Person holding a security interest in the Pledged ULC Shares; or (v) act as a member or shareholder of such ULC, or exercise any rights of a member or shareholder of such ULC, including the right to attend a meeting of such ULC or vote the shares of such ULC.

Such Grantor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to attach each Amendment to this Canadian Security Agreement and agrees that all additional Collateral owned by it set forth in such Amendments shall be considered to be part of the Collateral.

4.5. Uncertificated Pledged Collateral. Subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, such Grantor will permit the Administrative Agent from time to time to cause the appropriate issuers (and, if held with a securities intermediary, such securities intermediary) of uncertificated securities or other types of Pledged Collateral owned by it not represented by certificates to mark their books and records with the numbers and face amounts of all such uncertificated securities or other types of Pledged Collateral not represented by certificates and all rollovers and replacements therefor to reflect the Lien of the Administrative Agent granted pursuant to this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement.

(c)If any Grantor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, acquires ownership of any Patent, Trademark or Copyright registration or application, in each case, material to the Grantors’ business, taken as a whole, or files any application for any Patent, Trademark or Copyright with the Canadian Intellectual Property Office, United States Patent and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office or any office or agency in any political subdivision of the United States or in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, in each case, material to the Grantors’ business, taken as a whole, such Grantor shall notify the Administrative Agent with written notice of such acquisition, registration or application (concurrently with the delivery of the financial statements with respect to the end of the fiscal quarter in which such Grantor acquires such ownership interest or such later date as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion), and, upon request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor shall execute and deliver any and all security agreements to be filed with the Canadian Intellectual Property Office, United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s security interest on such Patent, Trademark or Copyright, and the General Intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.

(e)In the event that any Grantor knows or has reason to believe that any Collateral consisting of a Patent, Trademark or Copyright that is material to the conduct of the business of Holdings, the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, has been or is being infringed, misappropriated, diluted or otherwise violated by a third person, such Grantor, if consistent with good business judgment, promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation, and take such other actions as are appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Collateral.

4.8. [intentionally omitted].

4.9. Letter-of-Credit Rights. If such Grantor is or becomes the beneficiary of a letter of credit with a stated value in excess of $5,000,000, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the issuer and/or confirmation bank to (i) consent to the assignment of any rights of such Grantor under such letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit Rights”) to the Administrative Agent and (ii) during a Cash Dominion Period, agree to direct all payments thereunder to a Deposit Account subject to a Control Agreement for application to the Secured Obligations, in accordance with Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

4.10. [intentionally omitted].

4.11. No Interference. Such Grantor agrees that it will not interfere with any right, power and remedy of the Administrative Agent provided for in this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, or the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any one or more of such rights, powers or remedies.

4.12. Insurance.

(a) All insurance policies required hereunder and under Section 5.09 of the Credit Agreement shall name the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Lenders) as an additional insured or as lender loss payee, as applicable, and shall contain loss payable clauses or mortgagee clauses, through endorsements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

4.14. [intentionally omitted].

ARTICLE V

EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES


5.1.	[intentionally omitted].


5.2.	Remedies.

(i)subject to Section 3.13(d) with respect to Pledged ULC Shares, those rights and remedies provided in this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document; provided that, this Section 5.2(a) shall not be understood to limit any rights or remedies available to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders prior to an Event of Default;

(c)The Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Lenders, may comply with any applicable provincial or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

(h)Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Collateral and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof in accordance with clause (a) above. Each Grantor also acknowledges that any private sale may result in prices and other terms less favourable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such sale being private. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit any Grantor or the issuer of the Pledged Collateral to register such securities for public sale under applicable securities laws, even if the applicable Grantor and the issuer would agree to do so.

5.4. Grant of Intellectual Property License. For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise the rights and remedies under this Article V at such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies and subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, each Grantor hereby (a) grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Lenders, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Grantor) to use, license or sublicense any intellectual property rights now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof and (b) irrevocably agrees that the Administrative Agent may sell any of such Grantor's Inventory directly to any person, including without limitation persons who have previously purchased the Grantor's Inventory from such Grantor and in connection with any such sale or other enforcement of the Administrative Agent's rights under this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement, may sell Inventory which bears any Trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and any Inventory that is covered by any Copyright owned by or licensed to such Grantor and the Administrative Agent may finish any work in process and affix any Trademark owned by or licensed to such Grantor and sell such Inventory as provided herein.

6.2. Authorization for Administrative Agent to Take Certain Action.

(a) Subject to Section 6.2(b) below and subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, each Grantor irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time in the Permitted Discretion of the Administrative Agent and appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney in fact (i) to execute on behalf of such Grantor as debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in the Administrative Agent's sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Administrative Agent's security interest in the Collateral, (ii) to endorse and collect any cash proceeds of the Collateral, (iii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Collateral as a financing statement and to file any other financing statement or amendment of a financing statement (which does not add new collateral or add a debtor) in such offices as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Administrative Agent's security interest in the Collateral, (iv) to contact and enter into one or more agreements with the issuers of uncertificated securities which are Pledged Collateral or with securities intermediaries holding Pledged Collateral as may be necessary or advisable to give the Administrative Agent Control over such Pledged Collateral, (v) to apply the proceeds of any Collateral received by the Administrative Agent to the Secured Obligations as provided in Section 7.4, (vi) to discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees or Liens on the Collateral (except for (A) taxes, assessments, charges or fees which are permitted to be past due in accordance with the Credit Agreement, or (B) such Liens that are permitted under Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement), (vii) to contact Account Debtors for any reason, (viii) to demand payment or enforce payment of the Receivables in the name of the Administrative Agent or such Grantor and to endorse any and all checks, drafts, and other instruments for the payment of money relating to the Receivables, (ix) to sign such Grantor's name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to the Receivables, drafts against any Account Debtor of the Grantor, assignments and verifications of Receivables, (x) to exercise all of such Grantor's rights and remedies with respect to the collection of the Receivables and any other Collateral, (xi) to settle, adjust, compromise, extend or renew the Receivables, (xii) to settle, adjust or compromise any legal proceedings brought to collect Receivables, (xiii) to prepare, file and sign such Grantor's name on a proof of claim in bankruptcy or similar document against any Account Debtor of such Grantor, (xiv) to prepare, file and sign such Grantor's name on any notice of Lien, assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document in connection with the Receivables, (xv) to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to such Grantor to such address as the Administrative Agent may designate and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to such Grantor, and (xvi) to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement; and such Grantor agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent on demand for any payment made or any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expense incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that, this authorization shall not relieve such Grantor of any of its obligations under this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement or under the Credit Agreement.

6.4. Nature of Appointment; Limitation of Duty. THE APPOINTMENT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT WITH RESPECT TO EACH GRANTOR IN THIS ARTICLE VI IS COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST AND SHALL BE IRREVOCABLE UNTIL THE DATE ON WHICH THIS CANADIAN CROSS-BORDER SECURITY AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 8.16 OR SUCH GRANTOR IS RELEASED FROM ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 8.16. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED HEREIN, NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, NOR ANY LENDER, NOR ANY OF THEIR AFFILIATES, NOR ANY OF THEIR OR THEIR AFFILIATES' RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL HAVE ANY DUTY TO EXERCISE ANY RIGHT OR POWER GRANTED HEREUNDER OR OTHERWISE OR TO PRESERVE THE SAME AND SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY FAILURE TO DO SO OR FOR ANY DELAY IN DOING SO, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT ARISING OUT OF ITS BAD FAITH, OWN BAD FAITH, GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION; PROVIDED THAT, IN NO EVENT SHALL THEY BE LIABLE FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

ARTICLE VII

COLLECTION AND APPLICATION OF COLLATERAL PROCEEDS; DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS

7.1. Collection of Receivables. As of the date of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement, all Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts established by the Grantors with any banking institution, securities broker, securities intermediary or other financial institution are listed on Exhibit B hereto. Each Grantor has and will continue to direct its Account Debtors to remit cash, checks, electronic funds transfers and other similar payments relating to or constituting payments made in respect of Receivables directly to such accounts. If any Grantor should refuse or neglect to notify any Account Debtor to forward payments directly to a Deposit Account listed on Exhibit B hereto after notice from the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to make such notification directly to such Account Debtor.

ARTICLE VIII

GENERAL PROVISIONS

8.1. Waivers. Each Grantor hereby waives notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be made. To the extent such notice may not be waived under applicable law, any notice made shall be deemed reasonable if sent to the Grantors, addressed as set forth in Article IX, at least ten (10) days prior to (i) the date of any such public sale or (ii) the time after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Administrative Agent or any Lender arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral, except to the extent arising out of the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Lender as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any valuation, stay, appraisal, extension, moratorium, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement, or otherwise. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement or any Collateral.

8.2. Limitation on Administrative Agent's and Lenders’ Duty with Respect to the Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under its control. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Administrative Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is commercially reasonable for the Administrative Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Administrative Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as such Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Administrative Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Administrative Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Administrative Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 8.2 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Administrative Agent would be commercially reasonable in the Administrative Agent's exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 8.2. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 8.2 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Administrative Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 8.2.

8.4. Secured Party Performance of Debtor Obligations. Without having any obligation to do so, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent may perform or pay any obligation which any Grantor has agreed to perform or pay in this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement and the Grantors shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any amounts paid by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.4. The Grantors’ obligation to reimburse the Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be a Canadian Secured Obligation payable on demand.

8.5. Specific Performance of Certain Covenants. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 4.1(d), 4.1(e), 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.9, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15, 5.3, or 8.7 or in Article VII will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, that the Administrative Agent and Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breaches and therefore agrees, without limiting the right of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to seek and obtain specific performance of other obligations of the Grantors contained in this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement, that, subject to the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, the covenants of the Grantors contained in the Sections referred to in this Section 8.5 shall be specifically enforceable against the Grantors.

8.6. Dispositions Not Authorized. No Grantor is authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral except as set forth in Section 4.1(d) and notwithstanding any course of dealing between any Grantor and the Administrative Agent or other conduct of the Administrative Agent, no authorization to sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral (except as set forth in Section 4.1(d) or as otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement) shall be binding upon the Administrative Agent or the Lenders unless such authorization is in writing signed by the Administrative Agent with the consent or at the direction of the Required Secured Parties.

8.7. No Waiver; Amendments; Cumulative Remedies. No delay or omission of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any right or remedy granted under this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement shall impair such right or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall not preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Administrative Agent with the concurrence or at the direction of the Lenders required under Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All rights and remedies contained in this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders until the termination of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement in accordance with Section 8.16.

8.8. Limitation by Law; Severability of Provisions. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded or registered, in whole or in part. Any provision in this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement are declared to be severable.

8.9. Reinstatement. This Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of the payment so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned and shall be reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

8.10. Benefit of Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Grantors, the Agents and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns (including all persons who become bound as a debtor to this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement), except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement or any interest herein, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. No sales of participations, assignments, transfers, or other dispositions of any agreement governing the Secured Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Lenders, hereunder.

8.11. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the Grantors contained in this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement.

8.13. Headings. The title of and section headings in this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the terms and provisions of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement.

8.14. Other Pledge Agreements. The parties acknowledge and agree that certain of the Equity Interests constituting Pledged Collateral under this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement (the “Applicable Equity Interests”) may also be pledged to the Administrative Agent under a pledge agreement governed by the laws of the State of New York or the Netherlands (collectively, the “Foreign Pledge Agreements” and each individually, a “Foreign Pledge Agreement”). If, in connection with any exercise of remedies by the Administrative Agent under any Foreign Pledge Agreement, a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New York or the Netherlands, as applicable, determines that the pledge of the Applicable Equity Interests is governed by such Foreign Pledge Agreement, then such Foreign Pledge Agreement (and not this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement) shall control and shall supersede this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement, in each case, solely with respect to the pledge of such Applicable Equity Interests.

8.15. Credit Agreement; ABL-Term Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement, the rights of the parties hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement, including the provisions thereof pertaining to the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent. In the event that any provision of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement is in conflict with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Credit Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the rights of the parties hereunder and the priority of the Lien and security interest granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto or pursuant to any other Loan Document and the exercise of any right or remedy in respect of the Collateral by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to the provisions of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement. To the extent any provision of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement (other than Article II hereof) is in conflict with the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement shall control. The delivery of any Collateral to the Collateral Agent (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) under the Term Loan Agreement pursuant to the Term Loan Documents shall satisfy any delivery requirement hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the extent that such delivery is consistent with the terms of the ABL-Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement.

8.16. Termination.

(a)This Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement shall continue in effect (notwithstanding the fact that from time to time there may be no Secured Obligations outstanding) until (i) the Credit Agreement has terminated pursuant to its express terms and (ii) all of the Secured Obligations (other than unasserted contingent obligations) have been paid in full (or with respect to any outstanding Letters of Credit, a cash deposit or a supporting Letter of Credit has been delivered to the Administrative Agent as required by the Credit Agreement) and no commitments of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders which would give rise to any Secured Obligations are outstanding (notwithstanding the fact that there may be other Secured Obligations outstanding) (such date, the “Termination Date”).

(b)If (i) any Grantor ceases to be a Canadian Borrower, Canadian Loan Guarantor or a Dutch Loan Guarantor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary or (ii) any property of a Grantor is sold or otherwise disposed of pursuant to a transaction permitted by the terms of the Credit Agreement or otherwise constitutes Excluded Collateral (each a “Release Transaction”), at the request of the Grantors, the Administrative Agent will (A) in connection with a Release Transaction under subclause (i) above, promptly release such Grantor from its obligations hereunder and (B) in connection with a Release Transaction under subclause (ii) above, promptly release such property from the security interest created hereunder, in each case, concurrently with the consummation of such Release Transaction. Upon such release or on or after the Termination Date, the Administrative Agent will, at the reasonable request of the Grantors and at the Grantor’s sole cost and expense, will promptly execute and deliver such releases to evidence the foregoing.

8.17. Entire Agreement. This Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the Grantors and the Administrative Agent relating to the Collateral and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the Grantors and the Administrative Agent relating to the Collateral.

8.19. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NON‑EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO OR OF THE FEDERAL COURTS OF CANADA THEREIN IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS CANADIAN CROSS-BORDER SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY GRANTOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY ANY GRANTOR AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS CANADIAN CROSS-BORDER SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A COURT IN THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO.

8.20. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GRANTOR, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS CANADIAN CROSS-BORDER SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED THEREUNDER.

8.21. Indemnity. The Grantors hereby agree that the provisions of Section 9.03(b) of the Credit Agreement shall apply, mutatis mutandis, with respect to any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses incurred or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement, or the manufacture, purchase, acceptance, rejection, ownership, delivery, lease, possession, use, operation, condition, sale, return or other disposition of any Collateral (including, without limitation, latent and other defects, whether or not discoverable by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the Grantors, and any claim for Patent, Trademark or Copyright infringement), in each case, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.03(b) of the Credit Agreement.

8.22. Counterparts. This Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one agreement, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement by signing any such counterpart. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Canadian Cross-Border Security Agreement.
